Two music legends share top billing in this harmonic convergence. Huddie "Lead Belly" Ledbetter was an esteemed folk and blues artist best known for his 12-string guitar. His photo has Folkways penciled onto the back. Guthrie was an American singer-songwriter and folk musician, whose penned hundreds of political and traditional songs, as well as ballads and children's tunes. Though he is commonly referred to as "Leadbelly," the artist himself preferred his name to be spelled as one word, as it is on his tombstone. These 8.5" x 11" stills are in EX condition.
