  • Description

    Item notes: Fragment. First line: "Mary Ellen at the pawn shop door, a bundle in her hand and a bundle on the floor". Recording notes: Recording one generation from original. When this recording was originally dubbed from its master to C1009/8 the tape ran out before the recording had finished and so was dubbed a second time at the beginning of side 2. Both copies have been transferred as the first dubbing contained initial dialogue that wasn't included on the second dubbing.
