Is there one that Strutters highly recommend?
Also, there are 78 specific needles too correct?
Any info will be greatly appreciated!

    A number of churches used to press sermons on the 16rpm records, and I've also seen "magazines for the blind" on them over the years too.

    I have a record for the blind that plays at 8 1/3...I searched all over but someone at the estate sale beat me to the turntable.

    Did you see somebody buy it?

    No; I assumed there was one since the record was there (faulty logic, I'll admit).
