    Hello, [removed] I just purchased a group of 16 Radiodisc transcription discs
    of this series.  The regulars on the program are Jim Ameche, the Honey
    Dreamers and the George Barnes Orchestra.  Among the various guests are Julie
    Wilson, Eddy Duchin, Skitch Henderson, Jerry Colonna, Jack Carson, Marion
    Hutton and "Georgie Goebel"  (no longer "Little" it seems, but not quite yet
    "Gobel").  I'd be happy to pass these along to anyone who might want them, in
    exchange for digital dubs of the material.  (I need one of the episodes in
    particular in connection with a documentary I've been producing.)  Thank you.

    Andy Blatt has a problem that all OTR collector have. Time has passed us
    by, First it was reel to reel recorders, then Cassette taps on and the
    those wonderful CD's and That's not the End . OTR can be stored using
    mp3 files on the computer OR travel drive also know a Flash drive,
    Travel Dr. drive and other names that hold  many GB's of
    information.

    I'm a quilter, after 30 year of collecting old radio show and collection
    of  about 4200 cassettes ( about 9,000  shows)and 50 reel to reel tapes.
    I  called a day. My reason was simple I was tired of collecting . My
    cassette collection has labels that I printer on my computer. all number
    and date properly. I had insert labels in my clear plastic cassette I
    titles and of programs and other info. Took a lot of time & money to by
    the blank labels. I stopped when I revitalized any thing about OTR was
    free on the internet.  The collection took a lot of [removed] for 5 years
    my collection gather dust.
    I could not sell any in fact I gave away 3 o4 4 cassettes. made a lot of
    calls to [removed] homes , Library's Finally my call the Salvation
    Army resale store and they  said yes, they will pick hem up if you put
    them in plastic bags. They came and took all of it- gone. I don't miss
    my old hobby. I listen to any radio program any time I want [removed] On Line
    or on about local Radio stations,
