RCA Victor 27564

I picked up this recording in a batch of several dozen 78's I acquired with my cabinet Victrola out on Long Beach, WA a long time ago. The Victrola never got up and running, but the few gems in the 78 collection really shine. I don't imagine this particular recording is technically out of print, but wouldn't you like to hear it off the original 78? I would.
