first to post here ig? just noticed it

We're all young collectors at heart ;)
Be sure to look up Samuel Murchison Seka on the interwebs for some music and phonograph reading material.

Any new or young collectors live near the Edison Museum in West Orange NJ?

I think that this could be a very interesting section as I am interested in the reasons why 'young people' collect old gramophones and listen to old 78 records.

They may quite possibly have very different perspective than I have ?

A lot of young people are introduced to this music through games. Most that I know don't actually get hooked from a relative having them.

I remember Mysterious Mose being popular on YouTube Shorts and of course the Ink Spots "I Don't Want to Set the World on Fire" was in the game Fallout 3.

Great section. Wish I had this when I started collecting 78s in 2008 or machines in 2016.

Here's a silly question from a newbie. What's the difference between the outbox and the sent box in private messages. I've never received a reply to any of the messages in my outbox.
