I know I have this record in my collection, but I think it's in VG instead of E condition. It's missing a lid but I have a box that'll fit it; it came on the mandrel of a cylinder phonograph that I bought.

Will check the stash & let you know. It sounds fascinating when it's played, but I wish I knew what was going on in the lyrics.
