No reserve.
There are a few copies of these sides on Gennett and Champion, but this is the only known copy on Black Patti.
Probably pressed from the stampers before the Gennetts and Champions, the sound is breathtaking -- music is loud and crisp with light tics and pops from a few small scratches.
Few rub spots, but mostly glossy grooves.
This gem is from the collection of long-time collector Ken Swerilas who passed away last week.
