Title: Mississippi Sheiks 'Sitting on Top of the World' Advertisement
Post by: TenBrook on September 01, 2016, 02:41:06 PM

Hi all,
I just noticed a thumbnail of a Mississippi Sheiks ad on the main Weenie Campbell page and was wondering if anyone knows if it's taken from a reprint of the ad in a book or if the image was scanned from the original ad. A google search came up with the below from sundayblues.org however the scan isn't the best. Anyway, I hadn't seen it before and would love to be able to make a print to hang on my wall but that would necessitate a bigger/higher res scan. Any tips on where I might find a print version would be very appreciated.

TenBrook:

Check out http://bluesimages.com/html/product_html/2005_calendar_new.html

It looks like this particular ad is from this 2005 version of Tefteller's calendars. It is worth the money to simply buy the calendar, you'll get a CD with it.

Lindy,
Thanks so much. I should have thought to check the calendars.
