Au revoir, but not good-bye (soldier boy)
Little Wonder 818
Little Wonder records caused a sensation in North American 5 & 10¢ stores between 1915 and 1923.
They were single-sided and ran for just over a minute. Because of their small size they were made to play at 80rpm. The first discs were 5" in diameter, which later increased to 5½". Each was sold without a sleeve for 10¢.
Like many recordings on the label, this song evokes memories of American and Canadian servicemen fighting in the far away battlefields of World War I. Lest we forget.
