Lindale, Georgia: Country Originals, 1971. Book. Illus. by Powers, Nick and Wilann. Very Good +. Stapled Stiff Wraps. 15th Printing.. Approx 44 pages, unpaginated. Each page has small cartoon-like sketches of animals, vegetables, vines and farm artifacts in the margins. Gift inscription on inside front cover, no other markings. Novelty type style imitating crude hand printing. In wildly misspelled southern mountain dialect, the Powers present hillbilly wisdom in the form of "sayin's" and jokes. Example: "An idle rumor shore ain't a'gonna stay idle fur long." The maxims emphasize the value of hard work and avoidance of gossip. Size: 8vo -- 8.5 In Tall.
