This comes from MGM studios former director of Music Nat Finston. Nat Finston who was the general
music director for Paramount & MGM studios from 1928 to 1935. The collection I purchased from his
Estate was full of original incredibly rare Movie transcriptions of Bing Crosby and other famous stars
from the 1930s. I sold them all except for a few historical recordings like this. I have also listed King George
VI Coronation speech & King Edward's resignation speech.
