Here's another treasure trove of 78s, courtesy of archive.org. It just occurred to me to go there and sort of prowl around, and oh, Man! I found Popeye the Sailor on the very first page (instead of searching, I just said browse the whole collection -- 16 pages of listings, many of which are multiple items), as well as the long-sought "Uncle Josh at the Bug House" (2 versions), and Eddie Cantor singing "Cheer Up! Smile! Nerts!" Oh, also George M. Cohan's "Life's a Funny Proposition, After All" and more -- can't take the time to tell you now, and I've only gotten through four or five of the pages. I have to go!
