Clicking with Clax, Jazz West Coast (most Claxton Pacific Jazz centric), Blue Note cover art, NY Scene, etc. The various Swing Journal titles focusing on artists and genres show up from time to time on Ebay- usually from Japanese sellers. HiFido is a Japanese consignment company that has a searchable website, and they do sell print material.

During his art school phase pre Kilburns and Blockheads. That book is from the mid to late 1960s. When I bought it the same seller had the CO Simpkins Coltrane book 1st Edition for about 5 pounds and like an idiot I passed.

I know, man! The archive at WNYC doesn’t seem to have it anymore, which is a shame. That’s where I first heard about it as a jazz fan, before I got into Smith’s other work.

I sold my two copies (the are two books on Martin’s cover art) several years ago for $400.00 each. Further back in time, they were selling for much more than that.

This includes posters, flyers, handbills, etc. This is a whole new market and can be really interesting.

Also seek out the original NPR series about it, if it’s archived somewhere.
