Hi Barbara,

If you'd like to send it, I can make a transfer for you.

Best Regards !

I have been asked to get a digital transfer from what I believe to be a

"Flexi disc" (thin green plastic /vinyl disc with a square hole). The 
only complication is that, as far as I can tell, these were LPs and, 
therefore, no earlier than 1948. The date on the disc, however, is '43.

We have an osmium stylus (which we use for 78s)  and a diamond stylus 
(which we use for LPs). What stylus should I use for playback? (And if

you have recommendations for adding to my stylus supply, I would
welcome 
that as well, though I may not be able to do anything about it just
yet.)
