Where can one find a good source for heavy paper sleeves that fit the standard size Edison Diamond Disc Re-creation records? Or even better yet - reproduction sleeves with the Edison printing on them?
I just bought four boxes (200-plus) Edison Diamond Disc records that were stored away in Maplewood New Jersey since 1939, but all the original Edison paper sleeves are disintegrated but the records are in near mint condition, and just need a good cleaning. Thanks. Brian Keith

The best sleeves for Diamond Discs by far are Nauck's Disc-O-Phile sleeves, they're very heavy duty and hold DDs perfectly. They aren't cheap, but they're the best you're going to get.

Nice find around my neck of the woods. How did you find out about the Maplewood stock? Craigslist? Just curious as I'm always hunting for 78s in Central and North Jersey...

A big moving sale on Wyoming Avenue this past fall. Total was 216 Edison Diamond Disc records as well as an old Federal crystal radio set with Baldwin headphones.
