Possible...but the sad fact is that 78 players (NOT the curent 3-apeed
players, which lack a 3-mil needle...?!) are gradually becoming harder
to find and more expensive!! One might observe the increasing average
age of us here on 78-L...?!

I still think that in about 50 years or so, the last surviving 78 collector
will inherit (or be stuck with...?!) ALL the remaining 78 collections...?!
One wonders what part of "ALL 78's ever issued" will be included
therein...?!
