Amazing Film of Kentucky Folk Art Carver L. E. Ashbrook


 L. E. Ashbrook of Lexington Kentucky was a folk art carver in the whittling tradition, but he took it to the extreme.  Mr. Ashbrook created a fantastic film of his figures and machines at work!  This is one of the finest documents of an artist at work...and play!  A large group of his carvings are currently listed on ebay for sale.  Most of his work was created in the 1930s or so, the film was digitized in 2009. WATCH on Youtube HERE.  Extraordinary!
