Thread Name: Missouri folk-lore society on eBay
Subject: RE: Missouri folk-lore society on ebay
The item is here (click), still under $10. It's a 1966 reprint of a book originally published in 1940. I see there are a few bids on it, so I hope it will go to some deserving folkie instead of a rapacious bookseller or collector.
This Belden/Missouri collection is one of my favorite collections of traditional songs. Anybody know if this book is available online? I get it confused with Brewster's Indiana collection, which is one of several significant books available at http://www.traditionalmusic.co.uk/index.html.
