Description


Bessie Smith VOL 1

This is a very  very rare find particularly in the UK as it was never released over here only in the States. The reason for the rarity is after 70 years the binder usually falls to bits and the records get separated the binder / album as you can see is in excellent order as are the shellac records and all sound amazing having played them all in their entirety. You may find the odd one from thew collection on ebay but all 4 together is a very very rare thing. Please dont ask to split them as this devalues them and you are totally missing the point.
Please feel free to make an offer however they wont be going cheap so keep it real.
