Date Sold 7/4/2023Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Original Vintage 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm] Still (Learn More) Memphis Slim (born John Len Chatman) was a black African American blues pianist, singer, and composer from the 1930s to the 1980s. He led a series of bands that, reflecting the popular appeal of jump blues, included saxophones, bass, drums, and piano. A song he first cut in 1947, "Every Day I Have the Blues", has become a blues standard, recorded by many other artists. He passed away in 1988 at the age of 72, and was posthumously inducted into the Blues Hall of Fame in 1989. Important Added Info: Note that this is one of sixteen great stills we were consigned that all show black African American musical performers. Such stills are extremely rare. All are clearly originals and most have information on the back indicating that they were publicity stills. In several cases, we have never had any other stills showing these performers, so this is a very rare chance to purchase one or more of these! Condition: good to very good. There is writing on the back of the bottom that has caused faint scuffing and indentations across the bottom blank border. Otherwise, the still is in pretty nice condition.
