FATS, BABY, IVIE (on Ebay)

Ah, if I had mountains of disposable income, walls that yearned to be covered with people’s signatures, and didn’t mind turning my apartment into Ye Olde Hot Jazze Museum, what I couldn’t do on Ebay.  Exhibits 1, 2, and 3:

1.  Inscribed to Bud, circa 1939, this picture seems far too small to contain Mr. Waller.

2.  Someone was lucky enough to have this 78, a white fountain pen, and Baby Dodds in the same astral plane.

3.  On purple paper — delicate, like Miss Anderson herself.
