I use a little liquid dish soap and a natural bristle paint brush cut down to about an inch for proper stiffness, wash in running water & tamp off w paper towels.<br /><br />there doesn't seem to be a comprehensive discography of pre-1919 Aeolian Vocalion records yet, but the Online 78 Discography Project (see http://78discography.com/VOC14000.htm) should get around to it sooner or later. <br /><br />If you'd like to email me a list of titles, bands & catalog #'s I'll see what I can dig up. robchalfen@hotmail.comrob chalfenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09456519158892216145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4644617998788209426.post-53893093445318397082011-08-22T00:33:54.393-05:002011-08-22T00:33:54.393-05:00I don’t know if anyone will invite me to this blog...I don’t know if anyone will invite me to this blog and or if anyone is even out there still listen, but I will make an earnest attempt to summon The Aeolian Company record appreciators for their most expert answers to my query. Here it goes: I have a number of Aeolian records in my possession. I purchased them at a church thrift shop. I did not know what I had until I got home and looked through the record binder that I purchased, I know that they are vintage and may be sought after. I was thinking about cleaning them, so I went to a web site called Instructables; however, this site left me more confused than ever. One said use a rubbing-alcohol, another said use dish soap and distilled water and so on and on. That’s when I decided to look up the label and see if anyone associated with it may be able to guide me correctly, so with that said is there any Help out there for me? <br />MsbrownpennyMsbrownpennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05367303597183617400noreply@blogger.com
