Rare nitrocellulose

I have this on Australian Regal and a friend found the British Columbia issue. Seem more common than the USA issue.

Like most of Selvin's 1932-33 recordings, this is a near hopeless rarity. This may be a tape dub, by the sound of it - the original 78 just doesn't turn up! (BTW, I can positively ID Elmer Feldkamp's singing. I don't know Muriel Sherman, who is known, if at all, for her work with Larry Funk's Band of 1000 Melodies.)

The singers are Muriel Sherman and Elmer Feldkamp, not Ruth Etting.
