This is the 2018 online version of the booklet for the Archive of Folk Culture sound recording AFS L65-L66, published in 1973. This edition of the booklet was designed and assembled by Carl Fleischhauer. The publication generally retains its 1973 voice. Bibliographical and discographical references have not been updated. An editorial review in 1997 adjusted the text to eliminate inconsistencies. Three items have been changed: the name of the fiddling uncle of Burl, Maggie, and Sherman is now spelled as it was pronounced, and as Edden Hammons himself spelled it; the title "Old Sledge" is identified as the name of a 19th-century card game; and an important minstrel-era publication of "Sandy Boys" is cited. Several photographs created or discovered after 1973 have been added. The Archive of Folk Song is referred to as the Archive of Folk Culture, its name since 1981.
