Interesting Grand Ole Opry Autographs

Post by Walter Stettner »

I have this giant postcard framed on my wall - it was sent to the "Austrian Hillbilly Fanclub" by Ernest Rott, one of its members who visited the Opry in 1960. Lots of interesting autographs - can you identify all of them?

Not quite. Hawkshaw Hawkins, Hank Snow, Ray Price, Ernest Rott, Jimmy Dickens, Ernest Tubb, Roy Acuff, Jim Reeves, Madison Zenn?...

Hey Ron - you did it! Took me a while to figure out Hawkshaw Hawkins!

Madison Zenn means Madison, Tenn.

Kind Regards, Walter

That makes sense. I saw the dash after Jim Reeves and thought it was related to his autograph but didn't come up with Tenn. Nowadays that would be TN. Image
