SINGING TO HER DOLLS MARION BECOMES A MELBA Folks, Marion Talley was under contract to make her debut in a leading soprano role at the Metropolitan Opera House. The fact that she was only eighteen made her good fortune even more romantic, in the estimation of the chroniclers, than it would have seemed had she been obliged to wait another ten or twenty years for it. FACTUAL REPORTING AT THE TIME NOT RETREAD HISTORY SINGING TO HER DOLLS MARION BECOMES A MELBA This is story as originally written. There were many great stories published about the early beginning of the recognition of– the common ones show up every day but the rarer ones never make it. This is a collector’s item and very hard to find. I hunt them out cause really the better, untold and rarer stories were published in the rest. Here’s one of the best.

During my research, I discovered that thousands of our kinfolk lay unfound and unrecognized on some book dealer’s shelf. Because Old Memorabilia was printed before computer indexing, I index every item I sell. This complete index will be bound and included in this offering at no additional cost. I hope you appreciate the effort.
