CELLULOID BEAVERS

[gordon stelter]

I'm sorry, Joe,
     You may be the official list "Tool Police", but I
feel that I am one of the "Cultural History Police".

1) "Celluloid" dates to the 19th C, but I have never
seen it on a  piano earlier than the 'teens.

2) "THE Beaver" is exactly how Ward and June referred
to their son.

     Respectfully,
     Thump
