1 Collection Summary Call Number: AFC 1999/004 Creator: Eskin, Sam, 1898-1974 Title: The Sam Eskin Collection, 1938-1969 Contents: 469 containers; 56.5 linear feet; 16,568 items (15,795 manuscripts, 715 sound recordings, and 57 graphic materials) Repository: Archive of Folk Culture, American Folklife Center, Library of Congress, Washington, D.C. Summary: This collection consists of materials gathered and arranged by Sam Eskin, an ethnomusicologist who recorded and transcribed folk music he encountered on his travels across the United States and abroad. From 1938 to 1952, the majority of Eskin's manuscripts and field recordings document his growing interest in the American folk music revival. From 1953 to 1969, the scope of his audio collection expands to include musical and cultural traditions from Latin America, the British Isles, the Middle East, the Caribbean, and East Asia. Collection Summary by Format
2 Administrative Information Provenance: In 1970, Sam Eskin donated all of the field and commercial recordings he made between 1940 and 1969 to the folklore department of the Cooperstown Graduate Program (CGP) in Cooperstown, New York. Upon the collector's death in 1974, all personal manuscripts related to the collection of folk music were presented to CGP by his sons. The collection remained there until the discontinuation of the CPG folklore department in 1979. For the next twenty years, the Sam Eskin Collection resided at the New York State Historical Association's (NYSHA) archives until 1999. The materials were transferred to the American Folklife Center at the Library of Congress in 1999. Processing History: Graduate students Simon Bronner and Lee Livney were the first to process this collection at Cooperstown Graduate Program. Bronner organized and created a track list and outlined a processing procedure for all of Eskin's reel-to-reel tapes, while Livney arranged and cataloged manuscripts in the collection. When the collection was transferred to the New York State Historical Association, it underwent another partial re-organization. Once at the American Folklife Center, Nora Yeh supervised the final processing of the Sam Eskin Collection. In the summer of 2000, Sondra Smolek reorganized, rehoused, and created the database for the manuscript portion of the collection. Patricia Baughman processed the documentation on the reel-to-reel tape collection in the fall of 2000. In the summer of 2001, T. Chris Aplin reviewed the sound recordings, completed documentation on the reel collection, and processed the acetate disk collection. In the fall of 2001, Judy Ng rehoused the sound recordings, updated the collection's finding aid, and updated the collection database. Location of Materials: Please request the materials at the American Folklife Center's Folklife Reading Room, Library of Congress. Access: Listening and viewing access is unrestricted. Listening copies of the recordings can be made available in the Folklife Reading Room. Restrictions: Restrictions may apply concerning the use, duplication, or publication of items in this collection. Consult a reference librarian in the Folklife Reading Room for specific information regarding this collection. See http://www.loc.gov/folklife/recordering.html for information about ordering audio reproductions, or http://lcweb.loc.gov/preserv/pds/photo.html for information about ordering photographic reproductions. Related Collections: 3 Sam Eskin personally duplicated select original field recordings from his collection for the Library of Congress in 1952 and 1960. The first duplication project was accessioned by the Archive of Folk Culture in June 1952 (AFS 10,501-10,506 or LWO 1923), and consists of 6 10-inch preservation reel-to-reel tape recordings from 31 of Eskin's reel-to-reel tapes. The second duplication project was accessioned by the Archive of Folk Culture in June 1960 (AFS 11,712-11,719 or LWO 2995), and consists of 8 10-inch preservation reel-to-reel tape recordings from 142 of Eskin's acetate discs. Since some of the original tapes and almost all of the original discs used for both duplication projects can be found in the Sam Eskin Collection (AFC 1999/004), cross-references to both sets of duplicated recordings and all information pertaining to original recordings have been incorporated into the collection database (see: zip disk, Folder 1, Box 1; Appendix C). In addition to the materials in this collection, the Library holds eight commercial recordings with ties to Eskin appearing as a performer, contributor, or producer1. Some materials related to recordings Eskin made for the Folkways Record label, including clippings, correspondence, record covers, notes, and magazine articles, are held at the Ralph Rinzler Archives at the Smithsonian Institution Center for Folklife and Cultural Heritage. Preferred Citation: Researchers wishing to cite this collection should do so in the following manner: The Sam Eskin Collection, 1939-1969, Archive of Folk Culture, American Folklife Center, Library of Congress. The Collector Sam Eskin was a self-made man who tried his hand at a variety of professions and eventually found an outlet for his artistic expression in folk music. Born in Washington, D.C. on July 5, 1898, Eskin grew up in Baltimore but left home at a young age to explore the world. Consequently, his formal education ended with the eighth grade. Over the course of the next twenty-five years, Eskin's experiences as a taxi driver, clerk, magazine reporter, logger, merchant seaman, cattle hand, cannery worker, and traveling United Parcel Service (UPS) consultant exposed him to a wide variety of songs, including work songs, sea shanties, and American versions of traditional ballads. In 1938, he began seriously collecting and performing folk music. With the job security and benefits accrued after a fifteen-year stint with UPS, by 1945, Eskin was free to pursue his interests in the collection and performance of folk music. 1 Refer to the Library of Congress' Online Public Access Catalog (http://catalog.loc.gov) for further information on the following recordings: Sea Chanties And Loggers Songs; American Storytellers; Marimba Band, Otherwise Known As To Hell With High Fidelity; Blues And A Guitar; Caribeana, Hidden Music From The Caribbean Collected From The Shores and Islands; Harry K. McClintock, "Haywire Mac"; Songs Of All Times; and Tiroro, A Real Glossary Of Rhythms. 4 During the period between 1938 and 1945, Eskin gathered material with a growing awareness of folksong scholarship, reading widely on the subject to familiarize himself with the significance of folksongs as cultural and social documentation, and as an aesthetic means of expression for the people who sang them. As a self-taught folklorist, Eskin's primary interests were the collection, preservation, and evaluation of American folksongs, indigenous music, dance music, primitive drumming, oral storytelling, and oral histories. Eskin's papers and correspondence document an awareness of folk music's connection with folklore and musicology, which is reflected in the sound recordings he collected in the field. Eskin's interest in recording folk music came at a period of technological transition, and his early and successful investments in UPS stock provided him with the financial freedom to experiment with newly emerging recording formats. Eskin embraced new technologies and upgraded his disc and reel-to-reel tape recorders, amplifiers, and speakers on a regular basis. At his permanent home in Woodstock, New York, he was infamous for showing new friends and visitors the eight foot long wooden optimal base speaker he had built. The evolution of sound recording techniques in America from the 1930s to the 1960s is reflected in Eskin's own moves from acetate discs to wire recordings to reel-to-reel magnetic tape. From 1945 to 1953, Eskin embarked on several cross-country trips through the United States and Mexico, traveling from state to state in a silver trailer from which he made field recordings, notations, and transcriptions. By the mid 1950s, Eskin began a series of trips abroad, visiting Jamaica, Cuba, England, Scotland, Spain, Israel, Lebanon, Syria, Morocco, Hong Kong, the Philippines, India, and Thailand, while often recording and collecting samples of the local music and lore he encountered. With his casual demeanor and energetic passion for music, Eskin easily made new acquaintances and maintained correspondence with a number of musicians he met in his travels. Eskin also shared his thoughts on folk music through correspondence and visits with other folklorists in the field, including renowned collectors and performers Pete Seeger and Sydney Robertson Cowell. Professionally, Eskin lectured at various universities, workshops, and folk festivals, and released two commercial albums, Sea Shanties and Loggers Songs, and the four-disc set Sam Eskin Songs and Ballads. From 1948 to 1972, working with fellow enthusiasts and music producers Emory Cook and Moses Asch, Eskin also contributed original source material, co-produced, or performed on 19 albums released under the Cook Laboratories/Folkways Records label.

Geary, Jim Helmer, Joe Mehrton, Dorothy Valiant, Margaret Scope and Content Note While Sam Eskin's interests were broad in scope, his multi-format collection of manuscripts, published materials, sound recordings, and still images concentrates and builds upon his early interests in American folk music. The collection centers around field recordings Eskin made in the United States from 1938 to 1966. Not only are these recordings the source material for a number of his original song notations and transcriptions, certain performers' names reappear in his correspondence, business records, notes, and photographs. Another topical connection between the manuscript and audio portions of the collection is bawdy humor. From the beginning, Eskin marked risqué field recordings with a Greek Delta (Δ), and created a Humorous subdivision for his bawdy song transcriptions. He also maintained a healthy file of limericks that mirror the tone and intent of his Delta recordings. 8 The manuscript portion of the Sam Eskin Collection contains original and printed material, broken into eight main categories: 1) administrative records related to the transfer and acquisition of the collection; 2) clippings/articles related to folk music; 3) Eskin's correspondence with other enthusiasts, performers, and scholars; 4) Eskin's notes and drafts for lectures, presentations, and radio interviews; 5) mailings and advertisements from societies and studios, including festival programs and newsletters; 6) ideas, notes, quotations, and song lists jotted or typed onto slips of paper; 7) a collection of bawdy limericks; and 8) a comprehensive collection of song notations and transcriptions. The last category includes the majority of the manuscript items. Many of these notations were taken directly from original disc and reel-to-reel field recordings and remain in subdivided categories organized by Eskin. It should also be noted that, while a handful of these manuscript items are related to traditional Mexican music, the majority of these manuscripts are directly related to folk music in the United States. The audio portion of this collection consists of disc and reel-to-reel field recordings, duplicates, and commercial recordings2. Even more than the manuscript series, these sound recordings reflect Eskin's diverse musical interests, his exploration into different genres, and his experimentation with field recording techniques. Although Eskin did not keep formal records of field recording sessions, information regarding songs, locations, and performers are noted on disc sleeves, reel-to-reel boxes, and select items located in the manuscript portion of the collection. While a few of the American performers in these recordings were prominent artists at the time, Eskin made a number of recordings with artists who did not achieve commercial recognition until much later in their careers. Some of Eskin's recordings abroad, later used in commercial albums, have no standard title and are performed by unidentified artists. Eskin's first field recordings were made on discs, which he used from 1940 to 1949. During this time, his many cross-country trips from New York to California were spent recording American folk music. In the late 1940s and early 1950s, Eskin made audio duplications of these field recordings on 16-inch preservation discs. Concerned over the viability of magnetic tape, he also made 16-inch discs of reel-to-reel field recordings made from the early 1950s, and transferred a small selection of commercial jazz and blues songs, commercial releases of international music, radio broadcasts, and miscellaneous recordings onto the 16-inch disc format. The 12-inch discs included in this collection appear to be given to Eskin by an unidentified collector. Eskin switched to reel-to-reel tape in 1949. When it was clear that magnetic tape had become a recording standard, Eskin migrated his disc recordings onto tape, and began duplicating of his own tapes, other collectors' recordings, and commercial songs or albums. While he continued making field recordings in the United States, beginning in 1950 Eskin collected music during his more frequent travels abroad. His visits to Mexico, Israel, Spain, and the British Isles yielded a respectable cache of field recordings, which are supplemented by recordings he made in the Middle East, the Caribbean, and East Asia. Also included in AFC 1999/004 are two sets of commercial recordings containing songs performed by Eskin: Sam Eskin Songs and Ballads (four 10" discs, 2 sets) and Vistas of Israel (four 16" discs). 2 See Appendix D for a complete listing of commercial recordings transferred to the Motion Picture, Broadcast, and Recorded Sound Division, Library of Congress. 9 In 1952, Eskin duplicated thirty-one of his reel-to-reel tape field recordings for the Archive of Folk Song (AFS 10,501-10,506). Eskin also collaborated on a second duplication project to make copies of his earliest disc field recordings for the Archive of Folk Song in 1960 (AFS 11,712-11,719). Additional original recordings used in these duplication projects are included in this collection. See Appendix C for a concordance listing the original field recordings, corresponding AFS reference copies where available, and identification numbers. The graphic images in this collection consist of 55 black-and-white prints of various sizes, one color print, two negatives, and a handful of unused postcards depicting views of instruments and instumentalists. Two thirds of the photographic subjects have been identified as field recording performers. The remaining subjects, while unidentified, are also assumed to be performers. The database created for this collection contains listings and locations for the graphic images and musical transcriptions and notations, as well as searchable title, performer, and descriptive fields pertaining to Eskin's instantaneous discs, reel-to-reel tapes, and original field recordings. This database is also available in the American Folklife Center Reading Room.
