Description I know nothing about records. My mom told me to find out as much as I could about the value of maybe 30 old 78's records. I have many many different artists. However, I do not have any of the original sleeves that they came in.  I am pretty sure that they date between the 1930's thru the 1950's. Some of the artists that I have are the following:  Tommy Dorsey, The Platters, Tony Bennett, Harry James, Ray Charles, Amos Milburn, Tab Smith & His Orchestra, Fats Domino, Erroll Garner, The Ravens, T-Bone Walker.  These are just some of the names that I have. I emailed a record collector and he never responded. If you have any information that will help me please let me know, becasue I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks.
