Description
Up for sale is this 12 lot of antique (c.1897-1918) large format sheet music - Military, Patriotic, World War1 themes . 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, title and name of cover page artist if available. Using my condition rating system described below I rate these from Good to 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 but request an invoice before payment when combining. 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.
