[78-L] archiving and/or storing 78s

[Tim Huskisson]

While temperature itself may not be such a problem, surely damp has to be
the greatest risk to 78s.

I've stored thousands of 78s for years in storage units which experience the
extremes of South Ontario weather - sub freezing in winter and very hot in
summer and there have been NO ill effects. One caveat, I will never bring a
record indoors in winter when it's very cold outside. I like to avoid sudden
temp changes.
