Collection of signatures and signed photos, most inscribed to Gaston Criel, affixed to eight 13.5 x 10.5 black album pages, each from an esteemed jazz icon. Signers are: W. C. Handy, Miff Mole, Zutty Singleton, Sidney Bechet, Pee Wee Irwin, Willie ‘the Lion’ Smith, Muggsy Spanier, Rex Stewart, George ‘Pop’ Foster, Sid Catlett, Jimmy Archey, and two others. Album pages also feature various clippings and unsigned photos. In good condition, with toning, soiling, some irregularly trimmed edges to more pronounced areas of paper loss to some photos, and slightly irregular ink adhesion to Archey’s signature. This collection was compiled by Gaston Criel, the noted French poet, writer and jazz enthusiast in Paris's famed St. Germain des Pres jazz scene.
