Description

JIM FOSTER (SAM COLLINS): The Jail House Blues / Yellow Dog Blues (Silvertone 5127) Classic blues performances recorded at Gennett Studios on 25 April 1927. These sides also appeared on Gennett and Black Patti. This Silvertone pressing is just as rare as those, if not more so. This is the alternate take of "Jail House Blues," issued on Black Patti but not Gennett. "78 Quarterly" estimates five or less in existence on Silvertone. In fact this may be the second of two known copies! CONDITION: G+. Very worn, but music cuts through the surface noise. No cracks. No skips. Label wear, and a bad label scratch on "Yellow Dog" side, but overall a solid copy.

Please note that great care and consideration is given to all 78s in grading and packaging. First, all records are cleaned and placed in new sleeves. They are then played on a new Rek-O-Kut turntable (Shure 3.0 stylus) through a Scott tube preamp over Boston Acoustic speakers -- no "crapophones" or portable 78 players beloved by many "Antique mall dealers." Grading is then done visually AND aurally. Any and all imperfections in playback will be noted in the item description. Finally, when mailing, the record is placed between several pieces of 10" cardboard, taped securely, wrapped in bubblewrap, and cushioned with styrofoam on all six sides of a sturdy box. None of the hundreds of 78s I have shipped have ever arrived broken.

Postage will be a flat fee of $6.00 Priority plus Insurance for domestic orders. Overseas postage will be determined at auction close.

Payment is expected within 10 days of auction close. Check my other auctions for similar items. Satisfaction always guaranteed. Bid with confidence: 100% positive feedback.
