We are very pleased to offer this beautiful Count Basie cardboard poster for the FIRST TIME in our auction! In the world of jazz music Count Basie stands out as a true icon. In the 1960's he made a huge comeback when producer Quincy Jones arranged and conducted the album “This Time by Basie!” which launched the Count back onto the pop charts right before the british invasion. Very few of these original pre-concert cardboard jazz posters have survived the test of time in ANY condition!
