Thanks, great article. At Sound and Vision in the Netherlands we recently digitized nearly 10.000 (mainly Dutch) 78 rpm records. Unfortunately researching whether this material is PD or not is an enormous effort. By the looks of it only a very small part of it will be PD in the US. Once the research is finished we will upload these to commons.

This is a good read in its own right:

but the thesis that some 78rpm records constitute the only surviving example of a particular recording, with no master in an archive somewhere, sent chills up my spine.
