This just got posted to the SABR 19c list. This is a great source if you want to hear original recording of Casey at the Bat, Take Me Out to the Ball Game, etc.

I like to sit outside drink beer and yell at people. If I did this at home I would be arrested, so I go to baseball games and fit right in.

perfectly ordinary, rather large, chain of drug stores, and came across a good sized clay model of Abbott and Costello. With a switch on it..he switched it on, and the ENTiRE "Who's on First?": came tumbling out, nice clear recording. He brought it to a checker, who said "We've had that thing for a year--nobody wants it." he got it for $3...

Case of wrong marketplace--I guess. Wish I'd gotten there first.
