United States 2019

In November 2019, country music star Dolly Parton celebrated 50 years of being a member of the Grand Ole Opry, a famed music venue in Nashville, Tennessee.

During a visit to Nashville in October 2019, Secretary of State Michael Pompeo was given this commemorative Grand Ole Opry acoustic guitar, which had been autographed by Dolly Parton and other members of the Opry.

Parton's signature ("Dolly") is located near the bottom edge of the guitar's body, next to "Lady A."
