Item: A number of 78 rpm records  (16  78's and 1 33rpm)  all 10" diameter
Location: Melbourne
Price: Free with donation to SNA. 
Item Condition: frankly, horrible. Scratches, chips, gouges, chunks missing, no wrappers/dust covers for any of these, scratches, a couple have paint flecks, two are broken, even the labels are damaged. 

Reasons for selling: No 78 function on turntable. A desire to see old things kept not binned, even as curiosities.
Payment Method: Pickup - Cash, Paypal, bank deposit.

Extra Info: starting a funky café?  Bought the Ikea or crowdfunded LP picture frames? Put these on your walls.  Genuine real thick 78rpm with genuine retro interest.  Are you an audiophile?  Compare this to 180gsm, it's heavier so must sound better unplayable without clean-up software etc etc.  Can’t be bothered selling on ebay, so it’s here or nowhere.  A piece of history. Label collectors: Tempo Records, Parlophone, Decca, His Master’s Voice, Colombia, Philips, Regal Zonophone, Capitol, Mercury. $25 is less than 1 CD to buy.
