The first on-the-air blooper

[Joel S. Berson]

News recently about the 1878 first Edison audio recording notes that
(to quote Fox) "It's scratchy, lasts only 78 seconds and features the
world's first recorded blooper."  The speaker of nursery rhymes
recites some incorrect words, and says "Look at me; I don't know the song,"
