BLUES 1920-40 3-LP BOX (Japan) Tommy Johnson McTELL Minnie CANNON Bukka STOKES

This 3-LP box was one of the first and most significant prewar blues compilations issued in Japan, in 1971. Drawn from the Victor/Bluebird catalog, it was later reissued with a more correct date span in the title, Blues 1927-1946. The records are in mint condition and the box has only a few tiny worn spots.
