Description
Up for sale is this 12 lot of antique (c.1910-1919) large format sheet music from shows. They are all complete (no missing pages). There are no separated spines or tears as they have all been mended if and as needed with acid-free invisible tape. I have provided scanned pictures of the lot.As for the pictures I scan,
my scanner bed is 8 ½ x 11 inches so the full larger (approx. 11x14 inches) sheets are not shown in the pictures. Also, If there is any cross-hatching, waffling or moire effect in the pictures it is from the scanning and is not on the sheet music itself.
I have listed them all below by copyright date, show tune title followed by name of the show and name of cover page artist if available. Using my condition rating system described below I rate 2 of these as Very Good and the rest Excellent. Payment via Ebay. Shipping is via USPS Media Mail with tracking to locations within the 50 states. I gladly combine multiple purchases for shipment savings if you request an invoice for payment. Any questions – just email me and I’ll be glad to respond with the information sought. Thanks for looking

MY CONDITION RATING GUIDE:
Rating the condition of an individual piece of sheet music, vintage/antique ones in particular, involves a degree of subjectivity at best. The sheet music I put up for sale are complete (no missing pages) and useable with no spine separations, which may have been mended with acid-free invisible tape. If you want more detail about the condition of any lot or individual piece just e-mail me and I’ll be glad to respond with the information sought.

Moderate evidence of use/wear; may have some yellowing or soiling, invisible and or regular taping, signature of previous owner or ink or pencil markings or music store stamp and may have some borders trimmed, etc.
FAIR (F) –
Evidence of heavy use; may have considerable taping, signature(s), music store stamp or other marks; may have some borders trimmed, etc. – but the music itself is still useable and playable
