The Talking Machine Forum — For All Antique Phonographs & Recordings

I was gifted a bunch of 78s. Some in albums, and some loose. Some of the loose ones were in sleeves that correspond to a record label, (see pictures) and one or two were in blank sleeves. Anything uncommon about them? I'm new to so much of this hobby that I think there's always something behind everything.
Thank you

They all look like standard, popular label jackets to me, so, yes, they're very common. Of course, keep in mind that they're also 70-80 years old and look to be in good condition. My advice is, preserve them if you can because in a few decades they'll be a hundred years old--as will I.....
