How to Determine the MOST VALUABLE VINYL RECORDS
The most valuable vinyl records are categorised on the following basis:
- The uniqueness of vinyl Record
- Antiqueness
- Manufacturing procedure and cost
Different Types of records are discussed above.
78 RPM Record:
Manufactured until the late 1950s, these most valuable vinyl records made 78 rounds per minute and conveyed distinctly around five minutes of sound. The delicate records were made with shellac.
33 RPM Record or LPs:
Long Play turned at 33 and one-third cycles for each moment. Effectively presented in 1948, they played for around 25 minutes for every side. So, 33 1/3 RPM “Long Play” records hold a whole album.
45 RPM Record:
Only 7 inches (17.5 centimeters) in distance across, the 45 appeared in 1949 and was regularly called a “solitary,” as it held one melody on each side.
