Trafton’s Cartoon (Bauer, 1936) was chosen for a record with “authentic Jazz interpretations of the greatest Dixieland hits by many of the world’s most talented musicians” including Bobby Byrne (1918–2006) and Will Bradley (1912–1989, no relation to Will H. Bradley), released by Grand Award Records (G.A. 33–310) in 1955.
