Item:  Lot of blues 45s

Company of Manufacture: Vee Jay Chess Checker Duke Excello

Condition: used see below

Additional Information: Lot of 39 blues and R&B 45s all original or early label pressings - not sure if any of these are early 2nd pressings (like Web Checker was first and we have the plain maroon) but none of them are later than 1960 or so, except maybe the girl group promo 45 and the mid-60s Muddy Waters. They are well used, but we've played them all and they all play through with listenable surface noise except the last 4. But they are definitely nowhere near mint so be aware you are buying worn but playable blues 45s with nice labels with (in general) no writing , tears or stains. It's an exciting and great set of early blues in playable shape!
