[78-L] Museum quality?

[bradc944 at comcast.net]

I just got done fighting with... errr... TRANSFERRING a Vernon Dalhart on Bell and it had a hairline crack... along with a lot of other groove-poo, does that count?

Bell 348 for the curious

Does the Liberty Bell have a lam crack or is it hairline? Did anybody check to see if someone put Scotch tape on the edge of the bell?
