- Description:
- The Fort Valley State College publication, The Peachite, notes "Sanders and Duffy, two very consistent minstrels in the Festival, are peach orchard workers. The audience loves them because of their talent and their intensely interesting personalities; they achieve a personal, natural, human balance which is above mere comedy and which might well be the ambition of more famous artists."
