Description:

New York: J.H. Tooker. A.G. fields was considered the best there was in Minstrel Shows during the turn of the century, and he considered Bert Swor as his equal. Upon Mr. fields death he passed the legacy of Minstrel on to Neil O'Brien and he instantly contracted with Bert Swor, the man everybody considered the best there was in "black face" minstrel. One of the performers A.G Fields called upon to generate that sort of allegiance was Bert Swor, one of the genre's premiere comedic singers at the time, an amazing contrast to the businessman-like persona Swor put forth in his partnership with Neil O'Brien.
