78s in Virginia?
Posted: Wed Aug 26, 2015 8:08 am
Hi All,
I live in Southwest Virginia and haven't seen many places where I can get ahold of 78s. After years of collecting CDs and LPs, I finally bought a VV-VI, and have been slowly adding records to my collection via Ebay, which is pretty costly once the shipping is factored in. The few antique stores I've seen that have any appreciable amount of records mostly feature junk from the 40s, all in horrible condition.
Does anyone around this section of the country know brick and mortar stores or conventions/shows that take place in VA, WV, or NC that sell 78s? I'm primarily interested in classical/opera and light music from ca. 1900-1930.
Thank you!
RJ
