[78-L] records in Houston

[Robert M. Bratcher Jr.]

I'd like to know also!! About 2 years ago I found out about roughly 2000 78's 
through a record dealer I know who doesn't deal in 78's. They were somewhere in 
Houston & I gave the fellow who was selling them  $100 for all the records which 
he had put in boxes before I got there. Seems his mom or dad (I forget which) 
had passed away & he wanted to sell the house off. Nothing really rare in the 
haul. Just your usual 30's & 40's pop & big band stuff in somewhat good 
condition. I still have all of those 78's btw.

Bill, Tell us all about your haul. How you found out about it. Where it was. 
Ect. Unless maybe they came from whoever that dealer was in Traders Village (on 
loop 610 near I-10 west) that closed his shop several years ago. Had 78's, books 
& windup phono's in the shop as I remember. Gosh what was his name? I think he 
used to be here on 78-L.

Eating my heart out maybe.

May I ask where you found 3000 78s for $200 in the Houston area?
