You're just not old enough Dave. Either that or you're too old and your memory is shot... lol.. The 16 2/3 came out in the early 50's I think, and was used mainly for spoken word recordings due to the fact that you could get over 40 minutes per side on it. Now for the shocker. At one time there was also an 8 1/3 speed. Those are even rarer than the 16's. Due to the fact that the 8's and the 16's spun quite slow, the quality was not near as good but for the spoken word, who cares about quality.Even worse, I've never heard of a 16!?, but vinyl is making a comeback. However I'm sure that once one of todays kids finds out you have to get up off yer arse and flip an LP over , God forbid, every 15 or 20 minutes, it won't be a long comeback(LOL)
Once again, stupidity trumps ingenuity, but what the heck, 100grand or so and it would again be a valuable Superbird, bet he'd sell it cheap, like 50K!?!?

I wonder how much they pay the people on "My 600 Pound Life"? a show that I cannot watch.Yeah I believe it. I have friends that could have made money back then. LOL.
