5190	YOU’LL LIKE THIS (sic) PARADE		New York City, ca fall 1932	nn
This is a square 4" advertisement record made for the DEVEAUX (?) Brush company. On the label < Quick, Watson, the Needle ! > The reference to 'the needle' is just a cute saying derived from the Sherlock Holmes novels of A. Conan Doyle. It was widely believed that Sherlock Holmes was addicted to opium and the phrase "Quick Watson, the needle!" was something he said frequently. In actuality, Doyle never uses this phrase in any of his novels -- but it is often quoted anyway. Putting this on the label of a record is just a play on words, in essence saying play this record quickly. On the reverse no text but in room for a sticker with address.
