Mrs. Lee found this die-cut card among her mom's belongings. These 'Buckaroos' are probably from California, as she hung out with musicians and didn't travel much.

Who are these folks? Is the guy with the washboard Woody Guthrie?

Wow! I'd say 99% yes -- definitely looks like Woody Guthrie. If the washboard said "This Washboard Kills Fascists" I'd say 100%.

Yes, thatĆ‚Ā´s got to be Woody Guthrie. It seems Woody and Lefty Lou in the photo had a Radio Show of Hillbilly Music together in California in the late 1930s.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woody_Guthrie

For the details, scroll down to the Ć‚Ā´CaliforniaĆ‚Ā´ section.

Many of those Radio Programs have been archived on the web. Here is one archive:

The Wikipedia Page has lots more Woody Links.

HTH. Enjoy! Cool
