*********************DETAILS ABOUT ITEM**********************************************
THIS IS THE HOLY GRAIL OF AMERICAN FOLK MUSIC COMPILED BY THE ECCENTRIC AND BRILLIANT HARRY SMITH, ARTIST, GURU, FOLK LORIST.  THIS IS  THE ORIGINAL 1952 ISSUE ON FOLKWAYS LABEL WITH "DG" STAMP IN DEAD WAX OF EACH DISC INDICATING THE FIRST PRESSING. ALL THREE BOX SETS HERE WITH 2 LP IN EACH BOX SET.  
THICK HEAVY VINYL, THEY HAVE THE FA CODE ON CENTER LABELS BUT THAT IS ONLY FROM THE CASE THAT FOLKWAYS WAS RUN OUT OF A BASEMENT AND LABELS AND COVER AND THINGS WERE ALWAYS IN DISARRAY.  THERE WERE RECORDS MADE IN 1960'S NOT ACTUALY DISTRIBUTED TILL 1970.  FOLKWAYS IS FAMOUS FOR THIS SORT OF WEIRD CATALOGING.  THE 1966 ISSUE OF THE HARRY SMITH ANTHOLOGY DOES NOT HAVE "DG" OR ALSO KNOWN AS "DOGSTAMP" LOGO STAMP IN DEAD WAX.  THESE ARE THE ORGINAL 1952 PRESSINGS
A PEICE OF HISTORY AND A OUTSTANDING COLLECTION OF TRADITIONAL FOLK AND BLUES MUSIC.
