[78-L] Billie Holiday lacquer...

[David Lennick]

You could also bring it to tomorrow's CAPS auction. Anything by Billie seems to get decent bucks. I put six G- dupes on the table and was offered $60 for them even before I'd put out the clean copies.

Use buzz words like "scarce," "unique," (but not "shinny") and you'll probably get some action. I don't know how many copies of "Strange Fruit" on Commodore have gone for three figures. There was an especially rich run of them right after the Ken Burns "Jazz" fiasco aired. I timed it so I held back several copies until after that segment was broadcast and I made over $100 on each. (What was it that P.T. Barnum said?....)
