Charlie was a little past his prime in 1951 and his health was starting to deteriorate, but he still could blow that horn.

Gary I have both Billie Holiday cards from the set, which to my knowledge are her only real cards. I can't remember if Louis is in it, I don't have that one if he is. The cards I have tend to scan a bit fuzzy but in hand they look ok.

I don't have any Charlie Parker cards but I blow his horn (or one like it). And actually played Parker music on his birthday. Just ask my neighbors.

Peter- thanks for posting those Billie Holiday cards. I'm sure you are right that they are the only ones released while she was alive. Do you happen to have a checklist of the rest of the set? As a jazz fan, I got to say those are really neat.

Trade a James Moody and a Gerry Mulligan for a Chet Baker Metronome All-Star card and a Sonny Rollins rookie...

That’s my nickname Barry.

Oops, wrong thread.
