Description

Fats Domino "Goin' Home" Imperial Gold Record Award (1958). This rare Imperial gold record award was produced in-house and only in duplicate, one for the company and one for Fats. This is the Imperial copy from the archives of the label's founder Lew Chudd. One of the most desirable of all from the in-house awards collection, the single was Fats' first #1 hit, spending 20 weeks on the R&B charts in 1952. It's also considered one of the most valuable of Fats' charting singles.
