I'm going to down a rabbit hole of classical music for a while.
I was at a book sale on Saturday that also had CD's for sale.
I picked up a box set of 36 CD's for $10.
Deutsche Grammophen - CD reissue of a whole whack of Herbert Von Karajan.
Directing Berlin Philharmonic from original studio master tapes of a ton of great recordings originally from the 1970's.
Beethoven Brahms, Bruckner, Haydn, Mozart, Schumann, and Tchaikovsky

Hit some thrift stores on the way back from a meeting in Markham yesterday.
Came up with Spitfre II and Spitfire III nice clean LP's.
From the Spitfire Band.
An 80's Canadian swing band creation that jazzed up music of the 40's.

Sampler of RCA 1959 recordings.
12 tracks, each from a different recording.
I collect samplers whenever I can find them
This one was promoted by Kellogs
With an ad for their cereal on the back of the jacket for Frosted Flakes, Rice Crispys, Corn Flakes, Bran Flakses, Bran Buds.
I did previously not know that Snap, Crackle, Pop, and Tony the Tiger went back as far as 1959.
Then a 1959 RCA mono of Scottish militarty band playing UK miliitary standards.
Labled as a give away to be distributed with new RCA stereo units.

Not sure how many are familiar with black market Soviet vinyl on X-ray film, but it's a fascinating story.

Of course the silver in it might have already been leached out.
X ray film usually has thick emulsion coating, and so usually has twice the silver in it as conventional film.
I still dabble in the old school wet darkroom in my basement.
In that wet photo technology you keep silver from going down the drain, as it messes up biologic proceses once in the wider environment.
And there are still companies that will pay you for silver recovery cartridges.
You mail them away once you dry them out.
Basically a flow through can of steel wool.
Fe iron ion binds with what the Na silver ion was linked to, and the silver, by now metallic, plates onto the remaining elemental steel.
Or falls as black sludge to the bottom of the container.
You can mix a solution to strip the emulsion off raw film.
Basically break down the gelatin that holds all in place.
I sometimes use xray film to make enlarged negatives for way old school contect exposure processes.
It can be bought cheaply and in large sizes.
Then recover the xray film silver when I am done woth them.
Xray fills the recovery cartridge faster.
You dont get rich this way, but do make a few bucks and know you are doing the right thing.
