Another rare gem from John's record store of 78's RPM complete with the introduction of the scratching and surface noise at the beginning of the record that was inevitable with the old shellac discs !!..boy they were brittle and very easily broken especially if you sat on them !!..by mistake of course !!....It must have been a heavy box 9 records and a 78 was no lightweight !!

It was not an album of 9 78s, but four. The rest are "extras" and the whole lot have been lifted from https://archive.org/details/78_its-the-little-things-that-count_dorothy-shay-mischa-russell-merrill-shay_gbia0003830d
