I Wished On The Moon by Ray Noble and his orchestra vocal by Ray Noble from the original 1935 Victor 78 rpm record.  A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square by Ray Noble and his orchestra vocal by Larry Stewart from the original 1940 Columbia 78 rpm record.  Played on a 1955 Webster Chicago record changer with a 1955 Ge twin stylus magnetic cartridge with the pusher type 78 or Lp stylus selector.  This 1955 Webster-Chicago record changer came out of a Columbia 360 portable I found outside in the trash that had been rained on for many months.  The Columbia 360 case was completely covered with a thick vinyl that protected it from the elements, and it is still in presentable condition in spite of being in the weather for many months.  It has a descent 6V6 power amp that just needs an electrolytic capacitor, the speakers also survived the elements. Columbia 360 phonographs were well made phonographs.   If it wasn't for the odd shiny weather resistant covering it would have been a total loss. This is the same type of Ge twin stylus cartridge I plan to use in the 1949 Webster Chicago changer shown in an an earlier video that will be installed in the Magnavox Windsor
