Bank—you seem so pleased it must already be full!! Needless to tell you the L&H record by Harmon is terrible—you should punch that kid in the nose for giving it to you—can you imagine—spoiling your whole Xmas!!…I listened to one side then gave it away—that guy played the 2nd side & committed suicide!! There is another one a '45—the L&H 'Cuckoo Theme'—that too is lousey!" In fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope and an unsigned vintage glossy 10 x 8 still from When Comedy Was King, annotated on the reverse by Jim Maloy: "This photo was Stan Laurel's, he gave it to Mike Polacek & then in turn to me."
