Do you know if "Johnson's Farm" was an actual place, or simply a prop for this photo?

What we believe is that Jimmie had a sense of humor and may have used it as just a prop. We think this because he would often comment on his radio show 'broadcasting from Polecat Creek' - when he was actually sitting at home. If there is/was such a farm, we may never actually confirm its existence.

Love the picture of the Catfish Band at Johnson Farm. My grandfather is in the picture and his name is not listed. Could you please email me so we could add his name to this page.?

Yes, we need to add your grandfather's name! What's his name? Do you know which one he is in the picture?
