										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://jazzcollector.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/dsc02849.jpg"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2671" title="Sonny Rollins Prestige" src="http://jazzcollector.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/dsc02849-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>How do you place a value on an album like this: <strong>Sonny Rollins Quartet, Prestige 137</strong>? Here&#8217;s my story: I purchased a copy of this record about 25 years ago as part of a large collection. It is quite, quite rare, Sonny is one of my favorite artists and it has this great cover picture of him from the early 1950s with slicked-back hair and a wisp of a mustache. A real beauty, right? However, the copy I owned was in pretty poor shape and a few years ago I picked up a near mint copy on eBay for $200. Actually, it was advertised as near mint and it&#8217;s not near mint, but that&#8217;s another story. So I&#8217;ve been sitting with two copies of this record, one in poor shape, and as I&#8217;ve been trying to weed doubles out of my collection, I&#8217;ve put this one aside and avoided making a decision. For some reason, this week</p>
<p><span id="more-2670"></span>I&#8217;m forcing myself to decide. I put the double in a pile to sell and as I was taking the picture this morning, I noticed the sticker on the front: Dayton&#8217;s $1.39. Talk about nostalgia. Dayton&#8217;s was one of the first stores in New York to recognize the jazz collectibles market. They had a store on 12th Street and, when I was starting out as a collector, there was no way to purchase records there: The prices were just too high. If I recall correctly, they were selling used Blue Notes for more than $50 and $100 back in the 1970s, when you could just go into a store and buy a later pressing new and sealed for just $5. How little I knew, unfortunately. They also had an outlet store on 8th Street but, even there, the prices were high or the quality was poor. So, to see a 10-inch Sonny Rollins LP with a Dayton&#8217;s price tag and a price of $1.39, well, that would be quite unusual. But then again, I do have two copies of the record, and the one in the Dayton&#8217;s cover doesn&#8217;t play well. I could swap covers, but the other cover is much cleaner. What to do, what to do? I just decided. I&#8217;m doing nothing: Keeping both records for now. What&#8217;s the rush? There are plenty of other records to sell and I have plenty of time to decide. There, that was easy. If I change my mind, I&#8217;ll let you all know and perhaps offer the duplicate copy for sale on <strong>Jazz Collector</strong>.</p>The post <a href="https://jazzcollector.com/prestige/jazz-vinyl-countdown-sonny-10-inch-prestige/">Jazz Vinyl Countdown: Sonny 10-Inch Prestige</a> first appeared on <a href="https://jazzcollector.com">jazzcollector.com</a>.]]></content:encoded>
