Up for sale is a lot of 67 78 rpm records on the very rare and extremely sought after Paramount label. These records were just acquired from a seller who mainly picked on the South Side of Chicago. Never in my life have I ever seen so many Paramounts! Included are two blues 78's by Ma Rainey and Blind Lemon Jefferson. The Ma Rainey is a nice red shellac and is in decent condition with signs of only mild wearing. The Blind Lemon is pretty beat, but might play on an old phonograph alright once it's been thoroughly cleaned. The remaining records are a mixture of jazz, dance band, comedy, vaudeville, classical, opera, ragtime, march and early 20th century popular music. A majority of these are the blue label variety, although a few are black and some are red. Some records date from the earliest period of the label, and are vertically cut as apposed to laterally. Many records are in mint condition and almost all are in above average condition. This is an amazing offering you will never see this again!!!!
