[Dixielandjazz] Fake Book Project

[Robert S. Ringwald]

Re: Louis Brown's fake book.

The last I heard, his widow was not interested in handling the fake books. 
The only way you could get them would be to purchase a used copy from

Perhaps this has changed?

Dave Littlefield has some great fake books he has created.

Dave is a member here.
