See below: Unfortunately the dealer, who had originally told me 78s were $2 apiece, realised once I'd picked out a pile and was ready to pay him that These Are Really Old, They're Bakelite You Know, They Don't Make These Anymore, People Collect Them and The Big Ones Are Like Super-Old, and decided that 12" records were $10 each now. I said I'd leave them in that case, and the dealer decided to "give me a deal this time" (bold of him to assume I'll be a returning customer) since I was buying a couple dozen records and give me the 12" records for $2 each in the end, anyway.. Still, such experiences leave a bad taste in the mouth. A few I'm especially happy with: (from an album of Norwegian patriotic songs from WWII, without the album itself, alas)
