Two for me ..

One was a Decca (Canada) 78 of I Met Him on a Sunday by the Shirelles Decca 30588. It went for about US$15 / £10 .. when it seems to regularly go for 4 times that.Seems only reason was a small edge chip that did not affect play.

Second is the 78 of Autumn Melody/ Rose Rose I Love you by Yao Lee on Indian Pathe for China (Pathe 35500. Got it for 25 cents at the local Sally Ann's -- its gone for over US$400 on eBay

"I Met Him On A Sunday"(Da-Doo-Ron-Ron) on a 78? how far behind the times was Canada? Here in Australia we in NSW used to joke about the state to our north, Queensland, being 20 years behind the times... but this example puts that one about Queensland in the shade! I know that India was still issuing on 78 well into the 1960s, but Canada.....? :eek:
Eh? This is from 1958... :confused:

I Met Him On A Sunday (Ronde-Ronde) by The Shirelles (1958) should not be confused with Da Doo Ron Ron by The Crystals (1963) the first line of which goes like this "I met him on a Sunday and my heart stood still, da doo ron ron ron da doo ron ron".
