I've been intensively collecting 78s for the last 5 years or so. I grew up far from the format or the music it holds, but I eventually understood jazz and blues and then wanted to live the real deal, feel the experience and listen to this music as people did when they were released. I spend most of my spare money into 78s since then. Nothing excites me more than a package of 78s. Thing is, I live in France and collect American music. Shipping makes this hobby quite expensive.
