[Dixielandjazz] Bolden Cylinder

[J. D. Bryce]

One the front side of the average 10" 78rpm record, there is but one groove.
It goes round and round until it reaches the middle.

That question was used to keep minorities in the South from voting.  It was
part of literacy tests that minorities were required to take to be allowed
to vote.
