These ads are certainly not uncommon...Victor was fighting hard against radio at this point.... but this one is in colour and I scanned it just for fun.

Re: Victor ad 1924
Frank, don't do that to me on a Monday morning, or I'll have to come back with some of my own juvenalia. Who could forget the immortal "Spots Over China, " by Who Flung Glue? Or "Under the Stands,' by Seymour Butts (OK, "Butz" around here). And then there's "Yellow River," by I.P. Freely.De Soto Frank wrote:Louise Homer - "Flee as a bird" - Japanese folk-song ?
As for song titles, we can't leave out Glen Miller's "In the Nude."
See what you started?

I can't take you kids anywhere. If you're not careful I'll exile you to "Pun Central" aka the 78-l message board . Then you'll be sorry .

I am very pleased that I did not have a mouth full of hot coffee when I started reading this thread...

The top picture of Madame Schumann-Heink resembles actress Helen Hayes to my eyes.
