The listing, United States: 1960, William Christopher Handy (1887-1955), Scott # US-1372 - US-5303g has ended.

William Christopher Handy (November 16, 1873 – March 28, 1958) was a composer and musician, and called himself the Father of the Blues. An African American, Handy was one of the most influential songwriters in the United States. One of many musicians who played the distinctively American blues music, Handy did not create the blues genre but was the first to publish music in the blues form, thereby taking the blues from a regional music style (Delta blues) with a limited audience to a new level of popularity.
