Auction of The American Songbag book

I found another copy of Carl Sandburg's "The American Songbag" in a used book store today, so I'm donating my additional copy. This is one of the seminal collections of american folk ever assembled (IMHO). I'ts a little rough around the edges, and fragile, but still all there. I paid $10.00 for it and would like to see the Mudcat get at least that.

I've been enjoying my copy from the last time it was in the auction, as much for Sandburg's commentary as for the song selection! Keep up the bidding!

Just to remind you--Sandburg's early 50's record has been re-mastered as a CD.
