Thanks in advance, is there anywhere online I can get scans of bootlegs or information, I’ve got a few records but suspect they are bootlegs, also is there a difference between the original Okeh label and re issue label 

Hi Gogger.

Others on here will advise re boots. However, something I've learnt in the short few years I've been collecting is that Okeh labels with a large 45 are first issues and with a small 45 are reissues. Whether both have been booted I couldn't say. 

Regards.

Thanks for that , I had a rough idea about the okeh records with the 45 but couldn’t remember which was which, I might put some scans on if I get stuck, thanks again for your help 👍
