A famous flying machine is mentioned in one of my favorite rolls,
Ampico #208941-E, "Lucky Lindy, a Fox trot in G major".  It's played
by Vincent Lopez (assisted).  According to the label, you can sing or
dance to the roll.

I have the original 1927 sheet music, words by L. Wolfe Gilbert and
Music by Abel Baer.  I display these with a 78 rpm Edison record
#52029-L with tenor Vernon Dalhart singing, "Plucky Lindy rides all
alone, In a little plane all his own."  I would be interested in
learning the meaning of "assisted."

 [ especially for Ampico and recorded by Ampico staff musicians
