Hoagy Stardust

Does anyone any guess about the current value of the first, 1927 release of Stardust, by Hoagy Carmichael and His Boys, Gennett Records, black label.

I have been led to believe this is rare, but don't know.

thanks

I tried several search combinations and only found one on Popsike. It went for $536 in 2004:

I don't know if that's the going rate for Gennett 6311 today (when it turns up at all), but its cachet of being the first "Star Dust" recording is going to attract greater interest than other Carmichael Gennetts (which have sold in the $34-63 range, as shown on Popsike).

Thanks for the efforts of your research. Much appreciated.
