The Knickerbocker Quartet records would have been out-of-date even for 1928 - something like someone listening to 1960s bubblegum recordings in 2018, but then, this book is heavy on nostalgia. Two Black Crows is a reference to Moran and Mack, a blackface act that had a radio show in 1928, and also appeared in feature films.
Does anyone know what "snapping like fuzzball hand dogs hidden behind black porch screens" means? I didn't get anything meaningful on a Google search. It sounds so vivid.
