Hi, Paul,

 

I expect it's a bit like looking for a new buggy whip holder.  There seem plenty of used ones around, in varying conditions. 

 

The trick is getting a group large enough with a uniform appearance to cover your needs- I assume that's why you are asking.

 

In some cases, there are acidic paper issues as well.  Those for the earliest Columbia multi-pocket numbered sets have reverted to tree bark.

 

Check with Kurt Nauck.  They tell me he gets bunches of records in from time to time.

Is it possible to purchase new 10" and/or 12" 78 rpm record-storage albums?  The 10 or 12 pocket kind manufactured by Decca and others, easily available until the speed became obsolete?  Used record dealers often have a supply of them --- used. 

 

Is anyone manufacturing them today?
