Considering the extreme rarity of the original 78s, condition is generally better than might be hoped, but it must be borne in mind that only one or two copies are known to exist of some titles.

Important Notes: 2 titles by (a=Mary Jackson (2)) and 1 title by (a=Tillie Johnson) remain untraced; the remaining two titles by (a=Caroline Johnson (2)) are on Wolf WJS-1011 ((a=Fats Waller)); all others on this LP are complete. '[discogs]
