78 RPM Record Labels

Joel Slotnikoff of St. Louis, who curates one of the web’s first and still ongoing music sites, Blues World, has been putting together quarterly auctions of original pressings of jazz, blues, R&B, gospel and hillbilly 78s for 12 years running (his most recent just closed on Friday). A typical auction lists about 2,000 titles and of late Joel has been posting scans of some of the more rare and unusual labels, a small selection of which are shown above.
