[78-L] 10,000 78s in Minnesota

[Koen Kamphuijs & Gusta Harderwijk]

... that's right... if they were 10,000 30s to 50s blues/rhythm & 
blues or swing jazz I'd be tempted, but only then.  Apart from that 
the missus would come up with the obvious question: where you're 
gonna leave 'em?  And she's right.  And then, Minnesota is a bit far 
away from Holland.
