Item #266031
Mock-up for A Treasury of American Popular Songs, from sheet music, from On the Banks of the Wabash (1898) to Say It with Music (1921), with a volume number I on the spine, but not published under this title. Simon & Schuster were the publishers of the perennial favorite Fireside Book of Folk Songs.
An unusual survival.
