Comments: "The rights for this routine were originally purchased by Laurie Ireland in about 1938 from Howard Brandt. Mr. Brandt was an old carnival friend of Mr. Ireland's and had used these routines for years in outdoor show business. The manuscript is given here in his own words, and exactly as he used the moves."
