[Dixielandjazz] Louis Armstrong box set

[Bill Haesler]

Eric Holroyd asked:......when the collection which sold in a mock trumpet case etc came along I was very tempted.
> Is this the same collection mentioned in Bill Haesler’s excellent DJML post?

Dear Eric,
No.
That 'trumpet case' one was released in the UK by Universal on 1st August 2011
It too, like the Storyville set, covers practically every thing Louis collectors already have.
However, the booklet and packaging were a drawcard.

The last I heard it had sold out prior to Christmas with not indication regarding a second run.
It was, so far as I know, not released in the US.
Very kind regards,
Bill.
