Martin Taubman 1938
Description
Titles read: 'Pathetone - presents - MARTIN TAUBMAN and HIS ELECTRONDE in "MUSIC FROM THE AIR"'.
Probably Pathe Studio, London.
Amazing act where Martin Taubman literally plucks a tune from the air by putting his hand before the electric waves coming out of his Electronde machine....
