We’re Looking to Buy these 78s
Dear Record Collectors:
We will pay a fair price for any of the records on this list. In some cases we would consider buying a good transfer of the record (at a lower price).If you have any of these recordings on an alternate source (a different 45, an LP, even a CD reissue…) that might work as well. If it would help to receive this list in a different format or sorted differently we can accommodate you.
Please email wantlist@tuffcity.com if you have any of these records.
Thank You,
Tuff City Records
