This rings a distant bell, but that's all you'll get from me. There's
only one shop which might help and that's The Gramophone Emporium in St
Stephen Street, Edinburgh, which sells 78s. They're only open Wednesday
afternoons and Saturdays.
They also have an annexe which is a cave of wonders. It's in a basement
of a house and it's stacked with 78s. I've spent many happy hours
scouring the boxes for gems of the shellac era.
Good luck, Amy!
