LOOKS GREAT! PLAYS GREAT!
Very Rare 1900 BROWN WAX 7-inch IMPROVED BERLINER GRAMOPHONE Record:
#259 "HOOLIGAN'S MULE" SUNG BY MR. CHARLES FOSTER.
Announcement at the start of the recording: "It's the Gramophone And Typewriter Company Limited of London...".
Has early desirable BRASS GROMMET. PLAYS GREAT! Few light scratches and light scuffs consistent with a 117 year old record that was obviously well cared for and played sparingly.
Plays great on my modern turntable with lightweight tonearm. Expect a few pops and clicks typical of playing an extremely early record.
See pictures for details and ask questions as desired.
The song:
"There's murder in the atmosphere, There's earthquakes in the air,
Pat Hooligan last Thursday bought a mule down at the fair,
When he tried to put it in the shafts it smashed the cart to bits,
It chewed up all the harness and gave all the neighbors fits.
Oh, Hooligan, if ever you buy a mule again,
You ought to be shot, you've gone off your dot,
You are a stupid fool. It's killed a lot of people off,
Kicked the top of the steeple off, If you want to die quick, just get a good kick from Patsy Hooligan's mule.
He chewed up all the tramway lines, He smashed in all the roofs;
He killed a dozen policemen, With his eighty one ton hoofs.
We held a public meeting, Down at Mickey Doolan's school,
To discuss the best and safest way, To kill that murdering mule."
Ships Worldwide.
Our packaging is some of the finest you will find anywhere.
