[78-L] Mae Questel

[David Lennick]

I have all the Mae Questel Deccas, the Victor, two tracks from an Associated 
Transcription and two takes of "Button Up Your Overcoat" from a late 40s Major 
Sound Effects disc all transferred and waiting for the CD reissue business to 
return from the dead (like the planet Magrathea).
