[78-L] Test -- and young record-spinners.

[Robert Shirer]

I have a large number Young People's Records issues from the 1950s.  They are wonderful.  They range from introducing classical and jazz music to "dramatic" stories which range from  fairy tales to historical recreations.  I especially love "Train to the Zoo"  which is a pseudonymous performance by Weavers during  blacklist.

All Quiet on 78-L except for rejected spam, about 15 to 30 per day (spam and phishing crap).

I have a 7-year old great-grand daughter with a new? record player that plays 78s, 45s and 33s  -- she is into some Beetles vinlyl re-issues (a big deal these days). 

She is now is asking me if I have any 78 RPM records  LOL !      I told her yes,  about 6 to 7 
thousand.  Most all 10" and 7"shelved on one half of my double garage, the rest is large albums stored on edge in various containers.

I will go through the childrens stuff and send her some age-appropriate 78s, they are mostly smaller 7-inchers.  A lot of that is nusery-rhyme and childrens stories.  She said that her needle flips over, so maybe will work well.  The turnover cartridges usually a saphire 3-mil for 
the 78s.   will mostly send vinyl, maybe one shellac so she can actualy see and hold one. 

Any suggestions?
