I'm Glad I'm Not In Dixie
A grinning African American man wears a tattered version of Uncle Sam's costume as he dances and sings. The caption below reads, "I'm glad I'm not in Dixie! Hooray! Hooray!" The caption may be referring to "The New Dixie!: The True 'Dixie' for Northern Singers" that turns the original song "Dixie" on its head: "Den I'm glad I'm not in Dixie Hooray! Hooray! In Yankee land I'll took my stand, Nor lib no die in Dixie." Black ink on beige envelope, image on left side. Image printed on envelope, mounted on various colored pages and collected in an album. |
