Records, Wilma victim

I agree the covers may be lost, but to save the vinyl you need to get them out of the wet covers ASAP. The stuff that will grow on the paper will eat into the vinyl. Once that happens the record is ruined.

Sorry to hear about your trouble.

I was lucky in our fire this year not to have lost any vinyl. If I had, and the insurance company had offered me a nickel each, I was ready. I would have asked a reputable audio publication to write a letter explaining that the medium is still alive and LPs valuable. ( I would have paid them a fee for this service. )

If you have to make an insurance claim for your vinyl--either cleaning or replacement--and your insurer demurs, this may be a possibility for you.

Very sorry to hear of your loss.

Seejungle,
Off topic I know but you guys (Coast Guard) did some awesome work down there. Definitely something to be proud of! Thanks!

Thank you all.
