Ha! The auction ended at over $140. This lot included the book that
started it all. No, not Pappy Shaw's Cowboy Dances, but Henry
Ford's Good Morning. It also includes Dance A While, another
highly-sought book that is still being published in its 9th
edition, and is the classic intended for public school teachers who
want to teach square dancing to their students. (Remember those good
old days?)
Good Morning
is available in a number of editions and a wide range
of prices on Amazon.com.
I wish the demand for old books like this translated into a
burgeoning interest in square dancing. But I fear it mostly
translates into my paying very high prices for old square
dance books.
