The Section has been divided into three parts: an alphabetized selection of minstrel songs, an alphabetical series arranged by particular group or team of minstrels, and a portfolio of rare items. Among the rarities is the very early Massa Georgee Washington and General LaFayette [as sung in character by Mr. Roberts…words and music by Micah Hawkins. NYC: E. Riley, 1824].

There is also an index to composers, available in the Library.
