78s at Mechanical Music Extravaganza

Post by John Svensson »

I'm considering attending the MME show in Wayne, NJ in October, is it a good venue for finding 78s in general? Rarities? Reasonable pricing? (Not $3,200 per disc....lol) I've never attended one of these before so I thought I'd ask and not rely on my imagination.

John,

There are several dealers who bring both 78s and cylinders, some very reasonable, some not, but I always manage to come home from the show with lots of great records at what I would consider to be "reasonable". A few of the record guys there have flat prices of $4-5 per 78 no matter what it is, so some good deals can be found.
