It is a bit of a mix, don't think anything newer than 1955 or so. Many came from a Country radio station. Marked promo NFS. Others appear to be from maybe a public Library. 7 large tubs full. Ones have looked at are mint. Not sorted yet,  jackets are miss matched to the records Decca in a RCA etc... Going to take awhile to figure this out :-) Anybody that knows the artists to watch for please let me know. Here are a few from the first couple of hand-fulls:

Decca: On top of old smokey/Across the wide Missouri The Weavers/Terry Gilkyson
RCA: Far away places/Missouri Waltz /Perry Como
4 Star: Divorce Me C.O.D./Tell Your Lies to the Man In the Moon "T"Texas Tyler
Decca: Please Don't Talk About Me When I'm Gone/You Know you belong to somebody else /Mills Brothers/T. Dorsey
Capitol: Let's Dance/Lackawanna Local/ Ray Anthony and His Orchestra
Decca: Pretending/Gotta Get Me Somebody To Love/ Bing Crosby
Capitol: What is this Thing Called Love/Wolverine Blues/ Cole Porter/ Ray Anthony
Coral: Blue Moon/Green Eyes/ Les Brown and his band of Renown
Decca: Choo'N Gum/I'm Gonna Paper All My Walls With Your Love Letters/ Andrews Sisters
Just a scratch of the surface. Couple of quick pics of general condition.

Check ebay on sold 78 record albums.. some can bring good money... also Vogue picture albums are collectible and very cool to display.
Hope you have a fortune there! Enjoy the music.

Thanks! Most fun I have had a long time. The lyrics are just a hoot. So it turns into dang the cat on g-tar/drums etc.. knows how to play. Search away and ya that was Leo Fender/Buddy Rich. Smiles for miles and looking for another 1000.
