- This is a six platter set that included 32 12 by 12 photos of some of the top jazz musicians of the day taken by "Life" photographer Gjon Mili. It was released in a limited edition of 5000 numbered copies (each signed by Norman Granz) and sold at the then high price of $25. The set had no overall catalog number, although the individual sides did bear numbers.
