SOLD: Edison #52244 "LOUISIANA BO BO" Wonderful! DD-$250

Post by FellowCollector »

One of the finest toe-tapping arrangements ever recorded on Edison Diamond Disc is on catalog #52244:

LOUISIANA BO BO - FOX TROT - BY B.A. ROLFE AND HIS PALAIS D'OR ORCHESTRA

-AND- (no slouch on the flip side!)

SPEEDY BOY - FOX TROT - BY AL FRIEDMAN AND HIS ORCHESTRA


If you've never heard this fabulous (and very HOT!) Edison recording (Louisiana Bo Bo) the closest I can find is this "live" modern day band version (actually quite good too!) on YouTube here:

Scratches and scuffs on both sides and normal play wear. One tiny edge flake on the L side not near any playing grooves.

This is a VERY hard to find and desirable electrically recorded Edison Diamond Disc.

PM with interest. Thanks.

Doug
