Description

Here is the unsinkable MOLLY PICON (1898-1992) - the brightest star of the Yiddish theatre in New York.  Her stage and film career lasted seven decades, always transcendent, and her immense popularity never flagged.  I especially love her on "Car 54, Where Are You?" as the last, hilarious resident of a condemned building!    


On this Pathé record, made in 1924, Molly sings two rousing and hilarious Yiddish songs: "YANKELE," about her Goyishe boyfriend; and "ICH HAB A KATARRH IN MEIN NOOZ," about the inconveniences of being ill.  Five years later, 1929, this song, or at least its main idea, was mainstreamed as "I Got a Code in My Dose."   


This original 1924 Yiddish Series "Needle Cut" Pathé Actuelle 03666 is in clean V++ condition.  Some scratches and wear, but nothing to get annoyed at. Such a mishegoss!!   


*****

These records come from my private collection, which I have been accumulating since 1967, and now am downsizing!  My highest priority in these eBay auctions is to give you the best possible idea of a record’s true condition and aesthetic value.  I always post at least four clear images, showing the record fore and aft, a close-up of the label, and the whole disc, warts and all.  If my purple prose won’t cut it, the pictures will!  Shipping is done with expert care. Your record will brave Media Mail in a stout corregated box, between four sheets of cardboard and a couple of “packers.”  I hope you are amused by these descriptions, and by the quality of service being offered.
