Hello,

I'm at the beginning of inventorying the 16" disks so I'm unsure of what the collection will bring.  The ones I have come across so far have been news programs sent from CBS and NBC affiliates to Montana to be played on the radio.  They are transcription discs from the late 1930s and early 1940s.  We are going to be outsourcing the digitization.  Thank you for the resources on 16" disc care; they have been immensely helpful.  It helped me figure out that what I thought was mold was probably palmitic acid.

Best,
