| Description: | Same as catalog # 524933 Announcer introduces MOMS MABLEY. Moms Mabley gives an emotional and convincing speech about "working for the man." She then breaks into a groove as a three-piece band begins to play behind her. She starts tap dancing slowly, but gets progressively faster and funkier. Cool stuff. | |
