SWAGGERING FARMERS [and] SUSANNAH DON'T YOU CRY

  • Durham [England]: ca., 1850
By Americana
Durham [England]: ca., 1850. Broadside, 25 x 19cm. Decorative border. Very Good or better. Text of two popular verses of the day, the latter in its original version-- reflecting the casual racism of the time-- before Disney et al cleaned it up. The former pokes fun at uppity farmers living beyond their means in a laughable effort to achieve upward mobility. The two printed side by side.
OCLC 912810680 [1- Durham U], 21265073 [2- U TX, U Pitt] as of May 2020.
