Capitol "G" Roll G-510 of 1933
By Robbie Rhodes

This style "G" nickelodeon roll in good condition recently sold
at eBay auction for US $866.00.  The competitor's final bid was
US $856.00.  MMDer Jim Welty wonders what's so special about it
and asks, "Are the bidders crazy?"

The new songs are from 1933.  The photo of the label shows:
