Please upload the flip side. Crinoline Waltz which I think was composed by the Scottish pianist Joe Henderson. Don't know why he didn't record it himself. Novelty pianists were all the rage during the '50's (Winifred Atwell, Russ Conway, Joe Henderson, Crazy Otto, Frankie Carle) and even into the '60's with Mrs Mills and Bent Fabric. The record you have uploaded here outshines them all.

@@IVORIESMAN Looking forward to seeing this up on KZbin. The sheet music is nigh on impossible to find. I had to badger a seller from England who does not usually ship records to Australia to sell me a 45rpm pressing of this record. My 78rpm copy is still in good shape but if it got broken it would be impossible to replace. The audio on your upload is very good. Those Garrard changers can be used in auto single play mode by placing the record directly on the turntable and flicking the auto start switch fully whilst holding the stacker arm up and keeping it aligned with the edge of the record. Then bring it to the centre and let it drop as the tone arm falls on the record. Stacking the records and letting them drop will ruin the centre hole in the record. The only safe mechanism is the type A Garrards which has a pusher mechanism to the side. I wrecked a bunch of 78's before I caught on. Your record looks to be in near mint condition.
