A List of Lists

by Gary Hickling

Until a few years ago I knew nothing of the many lists of recordings (LPs, 45rpms, 78rpms and CDs) that were available. For those who want to purchase out-of-print recordings of Lehmann (or any other artist), this is a way to do it. There are two kinds of lists: one has fixed prices for each recording and the other has a minimum bid in a silent auction. In the first case you will be able to purchase your record if your order arrives first. In the second, obviously the highest bid wins. For duplicate high bids, the earliest post mark wins the selection.

[Now these lists may be available on the WWW.]
