Played tourist in my own state this weekend, at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville TN. So many instruments, costumes, props and handwritten sheet music, just to name a few categories! The dress on the left was handmade by Loretta Lynn when she was 14 and worn by Sissy Spacek in “Coal Miner’s Daughter.” The flowing green dress was worn by Dolly Parton on the Porter Wagner Show. She seemed plump then but look how tiny she actually was! The guitar is the one Loretta’s husband gave her, that launched her career. The Formica pick guards were made by him.
