Here you'll find articles on
local and foreign 78rpm records, plus my work to date on creating a dating
guide for Australian and New Zealand issued 78s.
You'll also find lots of stuff relating to my collecting interest in the
copyright royalty stamps found on these old records, and other interesting NZ
stamps.
Enjoy!
Adam.
