Sheet Music

These very, very old fashioned sheet music came to me via a cousin who'd found them at a garage sale.

The earliest date I found was 1892 and the latest was 1920. The rest of them have no dates, though many say "copyright" on them. This was typical of late 1800s, to right around 1900.

They also all seem to be published in England & Ireland.

They are typical of the style and type sheet music I found at my grandmother's house.
