Signed first edition of 'Negro Folk Songs'.  Believed to have been signed by Lead Belly in 1949.

Nice Item, I believe Leadbelly autographs are very rare, from where you got it?

Thanks Uwe.  You are correct his autograph is very rare and coveted particularly by Folk/Blues followers.  I purchased my piece from a US Bookseller.

It's a great piece of history, keep it well and safe. I am interested in signed books too, will look if anybody offers similar items...
