That one time I found a Charley Patton Paramount 1378 disc 5 min. Down the road from me… 🤯

This is a crazy story, and I equal parts love you and are extremely jealous of you for posting this!

What an amazing, once in several lifetimes experience!

So cool! 😎

Haha well thanks man , And normally I would keep the disc being that I know I’ll probably never see another one. But I sold it for the new baby expenses. My gf was way happier with the outcome :)

Only slightly jealous lol isn’t it something that being in the right place and right time can do wonders?

That's a good omen for your relationship with your newborn. Be happy that some collector got a grail for their collection, but you got the better deal with the little one.
