July 11, 2022 Records of the Day

Many recording artists in the 1960’s and 70’s made special promotional records for brand name advertisers. Connie Francis released an album in 1961 for Brylcreem with its slogan, “A Little Dab’ll Do ya.” Not a big collectible it’s worth up to $20.00. But in 1964 the Yardbirds issued a 45 on Epic Records as a promotion for Esquire socks. If title on the record label reads “I Wish You Would,” its worth up to $500.00 with picture sleeve. If it reads  “I Wish You Could,” then record with picture sleeve, is worth up to $800.00 today.
