Pat, As I remember, it was a 78 size record but was flexible like an LP.
According to Bill Haesler, who also had a copy of this recording, he called
it acetate. I don't know if acetate means a flexible disc or hard like what
78s used to be made of. But the copy my grandmother had was flexible like a
LP.
According to Bill, this recording was made in 1939.
