78 Quarterly Back Issues for sale
ALL 10 issues of 78 Quarterly, a magazine primarily devoted to early blues and jazz and the collecting of such records. Issues 1 and 2 came out around 1967, and, after a hiatus of twenty-five years, issue 3 appeared. Since then, issues 1 and 2 have been reissued in a single volume, and issues 4 through 10 have appeared at one year intervals. The appearance of a new 78 Quarterly is always welcome news in the world of jazz and blues. Some of the most eminent authorities in the field publish their work in it.
