Billy Strickland 5 Song UNISSUED ACOUSTIC COUNTRY GUITAR 12” ACETATE 78 HEAR
Billy Strickland 12” metal acetate 78 5 Great unissued songs made by a young Billy Strickland, probably submitted to 4 Star to get recognition to get a recording contract. 3 songs on one side, and 2 songs on other side. Sound Studios Label out of Washington D.C. There are no matrix numbers on acetate or sleeve, just his name on one label. Beautiful priceless one of a kind rarity!
The record is in VG+++ condition. The metal acetate has a slight bend at the edge, but I’m sure it can be perfectly flattened with a little bend. It must have stood in 4 Star studio warehouse unplayed for over 70 years.
