friend needs help to dispose of inherited vinyl


An aquaintance has recently come into possession of very large analogue collection ( mainly classical and broadway musicals ) that goes back many years. She needs help to determine how to dispose of these 45,78,and LP some of these are still in the cellophane wrapper.
What is the best approach to determine value. I'm not knowledgeable enough to be of much help.

For all the classical records that don't have much current market value, if there's a stereo pressing of Janos Starker's Bach Cello Suites on Mercury Living Presence in excellent condition, that alone could be worth $1000-1500.

And what is it with the Broadway show tunes anyway? About a year ago Acoustic Sounds came into about 30,000 LPs from an estate, many still sealed, and I get the impression that at least 40% are Broadway soundtracks.
