Golden composed and performed in a variety of styles, e.g. the music for the show Artists and Models in 1930. as well as as "Toy Makers Dream" a novelty piece. This excellent record was probably made in 1925. The first picture shows the Edison Diamond Disc Supplement (Late 51900's, February to April 30 (May / 1927), featuring Ernie Golden on the cover.
