WetJimmie - thanks so much for sharing this. Great pics.

By giving away your details you realise that Elvis can track you down!

I wonder what the November Lupe-O-Tone release will be.

We now know where a fair number have gone. We should track them all down.

Thanks WetJimmie for sharing. Now we only need the youtube version shing that they are actually played as well :-)

I guess this must be one of THE collectors items now. What could be rarer and more interesting?

That is very nice. Am most happy for you. You do not need to be told to treasure those as your photo clearly shows you hold them close.

Are these 78s different versions of the songs on the album?

Thanks John,

I'm trying to get a list of who has them and see how widespread they are.

For those members of the 78's club, mine are the number 17/25.

Did they give any indication as to what they would pay? Would they give you a valuation?

No, I told them they were not for sale.
