The Family is a private club in San Francisco, California, formed in 1902 by newspapermen who in protest, left the Bohemian Club due to censorship. The club maintains a clubhouse in San Francisco, as well as rural property 35 miles to the south in Woodside. The Family is an exclusive, invitation-only, all-male club where the new members are "Babies", regular members are "Children" and the club president is the "Father".The annual "Flight Play", as well as a number of other stage and musical performances, are written and performed by club members. Plays aren't published or performed outside of the club, and all original written materials are retained as the sole property of the club.[8] One handwritten musical score, Thine Enemy, composed by Meredith Willson for the 1937 Flight Play 20 years before The Music Man was staged on Broadway, will be donated by The Family to a museum in the composer's birthplace, Mason City, Iowa.

Runyon - Chucko the Birthday Clown was a popular Los Angeles children's TV show host in the 1950s and '60sARMAND GIRARD'S father was one of the most noted choirsingers in Canada. When Armand Girard L'Ecuyer was born on 2 May 1897, in Clyde, Cloud, Kansas, United States, his father, Joseph Napoléon L'Ecuyer, was 41 and his mother, Mary P Girard, was 29. In 1940, at the age of 43, his occupation is listed as vocalist, radio in San Francisco, California, United States. He died on 27 July 1952, in Sonoma, California, United States, at the age of 55.Musically active for sixty years, it is not sur- prising that he had his son's vocal training well under way when Armand was but seven years old. During his eighteenth year Armandmade his début in Concordia, Kan. He was the original basso in"The Rounders". Lately you've been hearing his deep, rich bass solos on the "Associated Spotlight" program and as a member of the"Cycol Four" in the same weekly radio feature. He was the host of the "Light and Mellow" San Francisco Radio ShowMr. Girard succumbed to a sudden heart attack at his summer home in Sonoma County in July 1953. He was 57.Edwin George IMHAUS Born July 10, 1902 - San Francisco, California, U.S.A.Deceased October 3, 1966 - Marin - San Francisco, California, U.S.A., aged 64 years oldOpera singer (tenor) in San Francisco, Sollicitor, Insurance brokerU.S. "party" label produced for Novelty Records Distributors, founded in early 1937 and ceasing to operate around January 1938.This label evolved from Hot Shots From Hollywood, a jukebox label that was introduced in 1936 by John Collins "Jack" McClelland (1900-1973).Hollywood Hot Shots releases coupled Hot Shots From Hollywood masters with standard pop fare or mildly suggestive songs by Cliff Edwards. Masters were recorded at the Associated Cinema Studios in Hollywood.The Rae Bourbon releases were redubs from earlier Bourbana releases (with WR-prefix because they were made by the Western Record Co.).In January 1938, U.S. Post Office inspectors arrested owner McClelland in Honolulu, charging him with two counts of sending obscene phonograph records through the mails and via express, claiming that Novelty Records Distributors was responsible for the bulk of obscene records distributed throughout the United States.

Quick note on grading: The Grade (Excellent to Poor, I don't give Mint) refers to the WEAR of the record. Any other defects are stated separately When I listen to a record, I may also give it an aural grade (again E to P), and make a SUBJECTIVE judgment of the pressing quality for hiss and surface noise."EXCEPTIONALLY QUIET" is close to noiseless, like a vinyl pressing."VERY QUIET" is an above average quiet record for a given pressing."Quiet" is a record that is a great example with some noise. These judgments are SUBJECTIVE and will depend one the styli, phonograph etc. you use on your own equipment. Multiple item shipping: I am happy to combine items for shipment in one parcel.
