78 RPM Records Destruction!

[@Roll-Penut]

I'm glad videos like this exist so I can satisfy my morbid curiosity

[@klyted2454]

NOOOOO those records are worth allot of money imagine the 50 cents you could have made.

[@josephfrye7342]

well tough shit not these shellac 78rpm records standard vinyl records lp 33rpm and 45 rpm are better than shellac 78 rpm records

[@CPorter]

@@josephfrye7342 78s are actually pretty valuable. Plus with these you don't have the toxic communities around them like 33 and 45s do. At book value, all of those would have been worth $20 - $35

[@josephfrye7342]

@@CPorter I don't care and these shellacs are not up to our 78 standards unless you have a portable recordplayer rather than a home stereo system

Its hard to tell on camera but they were all broken or cracked. I would never break any non broken 78's. I know there's ways but to "fix" broken 78's but it's never really going to be the same way it just better off throwing them way or if people want the broken ones and they want to fix well they can have them.

[@sewell2777]

The Gilson Station True, I thought I saw some that just had chips on their lead in groove but perhaps not. Have you ever tried making wood stain from broken shellac records? Just dissolve the broken pieces in some alcohol and it makes a great stain :) Also, regarding the Columbia records, I have an old advert for them somewhere. It was their new "lamination" process carried out through the 30s and 40s. It consisted of taking a fibrous disk and coating it in liquid shellac, after which when it had dried, the record would then be cut. Apparently it lightened the record and made for a better sound, others dispute that it was just to save money. All of my 1940s Frank Sinatra 78rpm albums seem to boast about it. Who knows what they were thinking!

[@AL-Fritz]

I actually have seen a video of someone using 78s and making wood stain out of it. At least it's better than throwing them away and there putting them to good use. Columbia records made 78 there own way than everyone else in the late 30's 40's and little bit of the 50's. On old 78 columbia sleeves they show the lamination.

[@LifeOfJimbo]

I've had a few 78s with only a hairline crack. I threw those out as I'd never dare play them in fear they'd damage my needle

[@timsundell9820]

[@wiremuwifebash]

@@marmalade6170 Music from shellac times was boring and bad. It only started to get interesting in the 1940s, then it waned in the mid-90s, and now we're back full circle to boring and bad music.

The 78rpm community is no joke a bunch of old men acting like babies. I did a similar thing where I took an Edison record and played it on my gramophone cabinet. Everyone was soooo pissed. One guy wanted me to get kicked out of the group because of it, like dude get fucked I paid for it lol
