oh, ps - I've noticed that Edison Blue Amberol records which no longer smell of camphor seem more prone to cracking edges. A quick rub on a shirt sleeve is enough to release the camphor odor; if it is no longer there, then the record has dried out so much that it'll be likely to crack, soon. I wonder : If they could be stored in an airtight box, with a source of camphor vapors, would the celluloid remain pliable enough to avoid edge cracks?
