[78-L] Major Records Sound Effects 78's

[Margaret Still]

My apologies if this has alredy been covered.

I have two 78's on the Major Records label.

Both are of sound effects: a gasoline pump, a Model A running, a motorcycle,
a squad car, and some children in a playground (who have an oddly consistent
noise level for a "live" recording).

Who bought these things? Were they primarily mail order items sold to be
played at home?

Best,
Margaret G. Still
