DAVE FREEMAN COUNTRY 78 COLLECTION
More 78s from the collection of DAVE FREEMAN, one of the pioneer collectors of country and bluegrass. In 1963 Dave founded the COUNTY RECORDS label to reissue traditional country 78s, and over many years he amassed one of the top country 78 collections. Many sought after records in fine condition will be offered including some blues. Note that going forward my auctions will start 3 hours earlier.
Also, check out eBay seller ONEMINTJULIP10 where soon you will find more listings of great 78s from the DAVE FREEMAN collection.

Late Gennett electrobeam by Frank Jenkins' Pilot Mountaineers. Jenkins was an outstanding North Carolina fiddler and banjo player and member of the superb band Da Costa Woltz's Southern Broadcasters.

It was released on Supertone and Gennett and this is the first time on eBay for either release.
