Amici...

Is there someone out there who is truly 'vintage' ?  By that I mean someone 
who still has and uses a 'Long Play 33 1/3 rpm" phonograph. If so, I have a 
nice copy of Peter Ustinov's "THE GRAND PRIX OF GIBRALTAR" (AKA GRAND PRIX 
du ROCK).  But I no longer have a phonograph to play it on.  I gave away my 
entire collection of long play records, but kept this one because it was so 
special to me.  But since I can no longer play it, it is FREE to a good 
home...just reimburse me for the shipping costs.  

This is USTINOV's brilliant satire of European Grand Prix racing back in 
the day.   Originally this was something he did pretty much off the cuff in 
his living room for a bunch of house guests.  It was big hit with his guests, 
and so he recorded it on a home record cutter.  What I have is the 
commercial version that was produced shortly thereafter (1958) by Riverside Records.

Like I say, "Free to a good home...just reimburse me for the shipping 
costs."
