A medium amount behind in my efforts here, but I always find my way back. So for this week, a 78 RPM breaks the-getting-frighteningly-rare $5k mark with a Five Sharps record on Jubilee. I think we can now send the Nirvana "Love Buzz" 45 to the Department Of Weights and Measures as the official currency standard of vinyl records. Here's another landing exactly on $2.5k. A second 78 shows up in the #3 spot, Robert Johnson "Crossroad Blues" on Vocalion bids up past $2.3k.
A Northern Soul 45 shows up in the #4 spot, a Brooks Bros on Tay selling for over $2.2k. And last, the only issue of a picture sleeve ever for Eddie Cochran (he didn't have Elvis's sneer or Buddy Holly's glasses) falls short by a few ten spots and some change still over $2.2k.
