This is the cover of Robert Johnson's step-sister's new memoir.

Considering his influence on music and considering that up until now there have been only two pictures of him, this is quite a find.

Wow ! That is amazing. I think I read about this some time ago, but there was some doubt.
One can tell it's really Robert from the lazy left eye ( which Honeyboy Edwards said was a cataract ) and the incredibly long fingers.

Thanks for posting that, Larry.

Yes, I know what you're referring to. That picture and the article debunking it was from about 4 or 5 years ago I believe. This one seems to be legit.
