WANTED: 7 inch Standard records

Post by miker2001 »

I just purchased an open-works Standard phonograph. It would be nice to own a few 7 inch discs. Does anyone have any they are willing to part with? Thanks!

Hi Mike,
I have a Standard "A". The discs are easy to find on ebay, and occasionally on Craigslist.
Happy hunting :)

The 10" disks are easy to find. The 7" disks are herd to find. Most are worn and played to death.

Buy a few 7" Emersons on eBay and enlarge the hole. The Emersons are plentiful, much cheaper and sound better than the older disks.

I agree with Harvey - the large hole 7" standard records are tough to find in good playing condition.
