[78-L] Boston Public Library's 78 collection

[DKing]

Hello Donna,

[ in that Boston Public Library collection of 78s ]

Do you think the English-speaking Allies would have found Noel Coward’s
rendition of "Don't Let's Be Beastly to the Germans” (1943) very funny?.

Or was that the form Noel Coward would sometimes use, so over the top
that the audience couldn’t help but smile?
