Description: Beautiful copy of the 1955 Folkways LP anthology of Negro Poets in the USA - 200 Years, read by Arna Bontemps, on Folkways FL-9792. Nice maroon label deep groove pressing with the original insert. Features poetry by many legendary African American poets, such as Angelina Weld Grimke, James Weldon Johnson, Frank Horne, Langston Hughes, Helene Johnson and Arna Bontemps herself. The disc is beautiful and plays near flawlessly and just beautifully. There are maybe a couple of entirely superficial scuffs but they don’t affect the play. The cover has some light edgewear with some fraying at the spine and 2” splits at the top and bottom, not bad. The insert is included and the whole thing is just a lovely copy. Hard to beat.
