   Nitty Gritty vinyl 78

   I have an E copy of "Mr. Bojangles" b/w an interview segment, on   
   Liberty, pressed on a 12" vinyl 78 from the early '70s.  Although   
   highly modulated, it appears it is microgroove.  It is also stereo.   
   The story goes these were pressed in a very limited number and were   
   industry promos.  I received it from the original owner back in the   
   early '80s, who got it from a promoter in Hollywood.  I cannot seem to   
   find any information via usual collector sites or mags regarding this   
   78.  One dealer offered me $250 for it, sight unseen, unusual for this   
   dealer.  Anyone else seen one?
