Well...first, in "them days," a phonograph record cost close to a buck...
which was a typical DAILY wage for a working man...so a FREE
record was not to be trifled with! Second, the "other" side was sung
by Henry Burr...a VERY popular recording artist in 1910! So...the
disc was kept and played...!!
