I have the 1948 ed. w/ the red cover also the yellow covered one.
also one w/ a plastic spiral holding the pages together that appears older however the front page is missing on the cover are the figures of 2 people singing one w/ a banjo. I suspect that it is older. I sugest that you contact Roland Vinyard 597 State Highway 162 Sprakers,NY 12166 he puts out the IOCALUM NEWS I an sure he would have some information on this.. If not he might put out a request in the next issue..   Allan
