The Ralph DeLuca Collection of Pre-War & Post War Blues 78's! (Auction #5)

Welcome to the 5th and FINAL auction of great Blues 78's from the record collection of Ralph DeLuca.

THIS IS IT!! When these are gone, there will be NO MORE!

Some are fresh, never before offered, while others are unsold lots from the previous four auctions.

ALL will be sold at minimum bid or higher — nothing will be held back.

In addition to a great selection of Pre-War Blues, Mr. DeLuca also had a small selection of Post War Blues, including more than a few top shelf rarities!

Bid like you want to own them and you just might! And take advantage of the "call back" system of bidding on those items you REALLY want to own!

There should be something for each and every Blues collector looking over this auction. There are records here not seen for sale in decades . . . and some may never be seen again.

This is your chance to add some legendary rarities and just plain great records to your collection. Be prepared though — the great stuff is going to go for a lot of money!

E+ is the highest grade used. This is the old-time 78 grading system and I am very strict.

Enjoy the list!
