SOLD: rare blues Ma Rainey on Paramount 12395 - $135

Post by Viva-voce »

Nice clean-playing Paramount 12395 Ma Rainey: Down in the Basement/Trust No Man.
Light scuffing and just a very few very faint light scratches. No rough start, digs, needle runs, or groove wear. Surface smooth and quiet for a Paramount.
Condition E- but plays E.
Definitely an above-average copy.
$150 plus shipping. NEW PRICE: $135 SOLD!
PM with interest.
Thanks!

Steven

This sounds like a candidate for Don to copy!

The Paramounts are pretty well copyrighted... that is to say they are current and enforced. You'll have to pony up if you want to play a hot Paramount.

That's right, Donnie!

This is the last Paramount I will be offering for the foreseeable future--and it's a nice one, so time to pony up, folks :)
