   >From the estate of my deceast father (98yars old)   
   I got here some old records.   
   They look somewhat like normal 45 single records   
   but they are 78 speed revolution.   
   I do not know what to do with them, I have listened   
   to 'em - quality is sort of OK, no scratches -   
   only the music is terrible to my taste.   
   No names of performers,no names of composers mentioned   
   on the labels.   
      
   The diameter of 4 of 'em is 13cm - original covers   
      
   Bell records:(J.E. Hough Ltd - Edison Bell works, London   
   nr.281 - over the waves/ donau wellen valse   
   nr.347 - maritana/ moonlight and roses   
   nr.735 - my eye waltz/ at dusk   
   nr.740 - hot stuff/ midst the heather   
      
   then there are 5 of 'em 15cm   
      
   Bell records:(J.E. Hough Ltd - Edison Bell works, London   
   nr. 368 - celestina/ wanna go back blues   
   nr. 373 - then i'll be happy/ blue danube waltz   
   nr. 775 - barcelona/ magic moments )   
             (sticker on the cover "M.Abrahams & zonen" Amsterdam)   
             (date on the cover 23-2-1927)   
   nr. 779 - that certain party/ the elves picnic   
      
   then there are 2 of 15cm   
   Dixyphone record made in England   
      
      
   nr. 503 - the toy drum major/ hearts and flowers   
   nr. 519 - you must have a little of fun   
      
   Please advice what to do with them? - chuck 'em in the dustbin?   
   des anyone wants them? - at no costs - ony mailcosts - I'm in The   
   Netherlands. They are rather heavy and probably breakable too.   
      
   Does anyone want them?   
      
   please advice - Thank you -
