Big ones are 12 inches, I think. Maybe 14.

There are likely dozens - they just tend to stay very hidden.

78 racks have wider "slots".

Another thing you might do is go to the interesting record shops and ask
if they have any of the old albums for 78s - and I mean a real album.
They look like books, with each "page" being a sleeve. More than not they
have one record missing (it seems), so you could possibly get them very
cheap.
