This collection of vaudeville sketches were recorded between 1904 to 1910.
All were transcribed from 2 minute Edison & Columbia wax cylinders.
Both Ada Jones and Len Spencer were masters of the comic dialect specialty.
These routines are performed in a variety of dialects including Italian, Irish, German, Jewish, Afro-American, New York Bowery, and Rural. Most routines end with a short song related to the sketch. Ada Jones also made several vocal solos and recorded into the early 1920's. Len Spencer also made several monologues and some are included in this release. He continued to record until his untimely death in 1914.

SOLOS ARE PERFORMED BY LEN SPENCER & CO.
DUETS ARE PERFORMED BY JONES & SPENCER.
