There are still places where 78s can be obtained very cheaply, including the 
Kingston Symphony Rummage Sale and the thrift stores. Kurt's time is worth 
money, his catalog is an expensive one to print and mail out, and he wouldn't 
make much money listing ten cent records. I list interesting records on 78-C 
from time to time but I'm not going to put dollar records up there, even though 
I probably have thousands of records that aren't worth even that. Want a three 
foot wide shelf of Harry James red Columbias? Great music, but unless one of 
them is the original issue of All Or Nothing At All with Sinatra's name in 
small print below Harry's, they ain't worth a pinch of coonsh*t in Lake Erie.
