Description

Ernest Lewis as West Texas Slim on Flame 107 from 1953 - Little Mae Bell / Lou Della in E grade.

Great down home guitar with vocal blues from Ernest Lewis who I think only made a few other records on Parrot, Hollywood and Swingtime.

As a record collector I focus on how a record sounds so the records I am listing are playgraded using a 78 stylus without any filters or adjustments although the look of the record will also be included in the description.I use the VJM grading system but highest grade I use is E+ and the lowest is G+ unless the record is so rare that a G copy would be of interest to collectors so the grading range used is E+/E/E-/V+/V/V-/G+.

Visually the record is in excellent condition with great gloss and just a couple of scuffs not affecting play and plays superbly with great fidelity so grades E. I have been collecting 78s for some time and know how to pack  records properly. Ask all questions before bidding as all sales final but please note I travel a lot for business so it might take a little while to get back to you so don't leave any questions to the last minute. Check out the other blues 78s I am listing on various labels including Chance, Sun, Imperial, Checker, RPM, Sabre, Gone, Veejay, Chief, JOB, Elko, Red Robin.
