July 30, 2022 Record of the Day

In 1963, with the release of the album “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan,” Columbia Records sent radio stations promo copies of “Blowin’ in the Wind.” A copy is worth up to $700.00. Also included was a sleeve, blank on front and a “Rebel with a Cause” description of Dylan on the back, which begins with the words “Twenty-one-year old Bob Dylan has become in one short year the most talked about folk music talent in more than a decade.” The sleeve, as shown here, is also worth up to $700.00 by itself. You can find the value for all “promo” records in “Mighty John’s Promo Records Guide,” by clicking the link in the yellow strip above.
