They were made of bakolite and were indeed breakable. I do have a few but i have ONE that's really lovely. My friend worked in the recording studio and one day a VERY young Elvis Presley was fooling about telling jokes (that today would be a bit risky to say the least under racism/predjudice laws), generally having a laugh and some fun. My friend recorded it (that was her actual job) and kept it. She had it run to 78 (the bakolite ones and a bit underhanded and sneaky i know) and kept it as it was the only recording of him just messing around as a kid which is exactly what he was at the time, a teenager cutting records. When she passed away she left it to me as i'd always loved hearing it. I'm ashamed to say that it's been up in my loft for the last 8 yrs, and no systems seem to have a 78 setting on them anymore anyway! I think it might be 78’s your talking about.
