We used to go watch Sanford Lee, aka Professor Barnswallow T. Farquar, at the Log Village at Old Threshers every Labor Day weekend. He plays the part of a patent medicine huckster, performing songs and magic tricks for the crowd. This year he did his 500th performance at Old Threshers! He and his Mrs. are modern day Vaudevillians, travelling and performing in Kansas, Nebraska, Missouri, and Iowa. Here is one of my favorite songs, from his album, The Last American Minstrel, published in 1992.
That is one I had never heard - thanks.
