These recorded are valuable espeically the race recordings. There were some common of the day recordings recorded on the Black Patti, such as Dalhart, that are of lesser value than the race records. A few years back one of the 78RPM journals did a story on all the Black Patti records.

Please send to me. Ok, just kidding. Black Patti was pressed by Starr Piano (Gennett) for Chicago ecord Company, which was started by Mayo Williams. It was a race record abel. It only existed for about 6 months in 1927 and had only 54 releases. uantities were small so the records are fairly rare and valuable. lenn ________________________________ rom: "zonophone2...@aol.com" <zonophone2...@aol.com> o: phono-l@oldcrank.org ent: Fri, February 25, 2011 5:22:35 AM ubject: [Phono-L] BLACK PATTI RECORDS HI S ANYONE FRAMILIAR WITH BLACK PATTI RECORDS AND THE RELATIVE VALUE HANKS ONO ______________________________________________ hono-L mailing list ttp://phono-l.oldcrank.org ______________________________________________ hono-L mailing list ttp://phono-l.oldcrank.org _______________________________________________ Phono-L mailing list http://phono-l.oldcrank.org
