Mike did you get your album back? How does it look?

Coming late to this discussion, just found the site. I believe that Earl is correct. Leo and Eddie Mesner launched the Intro label in mid 1951 to promote hillbilly and western artists, strictly single releases on 78 rpm. The Mesners resurrected the Intro imprint in 1957 when Don Clark was hired as A&R to continue the jazz program that Herb Kimmel started with his Jazz:West imprint. The original Modern Art on Intro (ILP-606) fetches high prices for mint copies, and the same could be said for the recycled Modern Art on Score (SLP-4030).

My recent history of Jazz:West and Intro has all of the details regarding this release.

Mike, Rudolf: In my experience, Jaime will also look at any glaring issues when he has the cover in hand, and will give you the option to fix. He takes great pride in his work, and wants each client to be satisfied. I hope it works out well for you both.

I got a quote of $ 125 for the repair of a 4″ seam split on a 12″ sleeve.

150 but the split is pretty bad and he is going to fix the chipping.

Hi Mike, if you don’t mind me asking what was the ballpark estimate for something like that? Trying to determine if this is something I should explore as well.

Thanks for the recommendation Jeff. I sent Jaime my sleeve for Jutta Hipp with Zoot. It has a split spine. He says he can fix it. I cant wait to see. I will report back

Jeff: I asked for a quote at Jaime’s and will let you know. A book repair shop is a good suggestion too. I know a lady who repairs vintage books and she is 1 1/2 hours drive from here. Might try that as well.

Al: I learned of Jaime’s work from the proprietor of Fab 4 Collectibles, a top tier Beatles collectibles dealer in NY. You might give Thomas Vanghele a call. http://www.fab4collectibles.com You think vintage jazz LPs are expensive? Take a look at some of Thomas’ prices.
