[78-L] KKK records

[Han Enderman]

Sutton-Nauck ARLC says 
(p112): "The Rodeheaver Record Company (Rainbow) also issued Klan material 
on its Special personal label in the mid-1920s.", 
and a little more on p.179.

The elephant pictured on (Gnt/KKK) 75007-A (mx 11921, just after Morton's 11907-17) 
has letters GOP on its side and subsequently I found that the term 
"Grand Old Party" is a traditional nickname for the Republican Party.

 From what I remember from the last time this subject came up 5 or so 
years ago, it was determined that Homer never recorded any of them 
himself nor issued then on his label, but he might have recorded at 
Gennett the same day as one of the Klan records. However, I think 
someone turned up a Klan songbook which his publishing company printed 
as a print contract job.

I have heard that possibly Homer 
Rodeheaver also recorded Klan material but have not been able to 
document any
