Description
This historical 10 inch shellac 78 RPM record features the pioneering country music group The Carter Family performing their classic track Sweet Fern. Released in 1929 on the Victor Talking Machine Co. scroll label under catalog number V-40126, this Orthophonic Recording stands as a monumental piece of American musical heritage. Written by A. P. Carter, the performance highlights the group's signature vocal harmonies accompanied by Maybelle Carter's iconic "Carter scratch" guitar technique. The B-side features their equally renowned performance of Lulu Walls. This release is deeply coveted by collectors of early country, hillbilly, and old-time folk music. This specific shellac copy is remarkably well preserved in Very Good Plus condition, retaining a clean gloss and sharp, legible gold scroll typography on the label with minimal surface markings.
