What a pity. It will be gone in three days... to the trash bin?
Can't anyone take it and put it in a temporary storage at least? Maybe an institution would love to house this big collection... :roll:
Of this was near me, I would rent storage and move it there, for later scrutiny...

David, it's not that far... only 8 hrs. each way - leave really early in the morning and you could be back home the same day... :roll:
Just think of what's in those albums and all of those yellow record sleeves... probably some good stuff... Paramounts, picture discs, 500 copies of "The Old Oaken Bucket"... :lol:

What a shame. Someone spent most of their life amassing this collection only to be discarded. Thats probably what will happen to all our stuff too.
