    WOODY GUTHRIE --------------- what is there to say about him that you who are reading this don't already know?

    GOIN' DOWN THIS ROAD,
    GOOD OLD UNION FEELING,
    PASTURES OF PLENTY,
    and more.
    As you can see from the photos, the covers and first page are not in good condition.

    Book is 45 pages, signed off by Woody 3/29/46 NYC
    size is 7 1/2 by 10 inches
