12/28/1951Illinois Jacquet's Revue - A good single. But his salary is becoming too big. The show paid him $550.00, the $50.00 was probably added so that the Gale Agency could get its commission.
10/09/1952400.00Excellent. Best performance he has given us ever.
10/16/1953$450.00Excellent. He separated his act with some good blues singing.
05/14/1954$500.00Charlie Barnett Show. Changed his song. Excellent.
12/31/1954$533.34Contract price: $500.00 plus 33.34 for extra shows. Same performance. Excellent.

Transcription Notes:
The top entry of the transcription has no payment indicated on the Apollo card. Its possible that it would have been the same amount consistent with the 1948 & 1949 bookings ($350). But to avoid any potential discrepancy, will leave it blank and suggest future researchers reach their own conclusions.
