Notes
Announced by Spencer.
From the catalog: "'Say, Baby, this is my birthday.' He receives a brand-new red flannel shirt. Gives his girl a kiss. 'Look here, nigger, you ain't kissing no cow.' Off to hear the band play the 'Darkies tickle' at a clog dance. Laughing comments by a colored lover. 'He could go on dancing this way for ever,' but he wants to be sure she loves him.”
