They were ultra thin records pressed on some kind of cellulose, and quite often pressed from Grey Gull masters and issued in England.-Mickey -----Original Message----- From: Karl Miller Sent: Friday, January 15, 2021 10:45 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [ARSCLIST] 1935 home recording advice Thanks for the responses. One of you even went so far to get Seth W. to call! Ward has offered to do the discs. Both Seth and Ward recommended a large needle. Indeed the discs are lateral cuts. Thanks so much. Karl
