- Hardcover
Privately bound book of 34 sheet music selection. All selections were printed prior to 1858.
The book belonged to Adelaide "Addie" Weed, of Franklinville in Cattaraugus County New York. Miss Weed (1841-1921) has written her name and the date August 1858 on the front free endpaper.
Later in life Miss Weed was married to Marvel Crowley of Franklinville. I do not know much else about her, other than she must have been a barrel of fun whenever a piano was available.
The book is approximately 14 inches high by 11 inches wide, and folio bound. It contains 34 sheet music selections. 27 of the 34 include lithographed cover sheets. 4 of those 27 cover sheets incorporate color illustrations.
Condition of the book is Good. The binding is sound. The top three inches of the leather backstrip is cracked at the front board joint, but both boards are firmly attached. The inside pages are printed on the thick, high rag content paper typical of the period. There is light to moderate foxing throughout the inside pages, which does not affect readability of the score sheets. Occasional light pencil notations (numbers) can be found on a few of the score sheets.
The selections are either undated, or dated between 1835 and 1856.
The titles are:
The Five Belles Polka - with illustrated cover sheet, published by S.T. Gordon (no other examples found listed online)
Annen Polka
Saturday Night Polka (dramatic cover sheet graphic)

Description:
London, Ewer & Co. [185???] Overstamped in red: Jordens & Martens. New-York 785 Broadway. Hard Cover. 1 p.l., 108 pages; 26.5 cm. Composed in 1843-1845 on commission from the King of Prussia and first performed in December of 1845, Athalie was the last production of Mendelssohn's Berlin period. The first edition was Leipzig, 1849. Jean Racine's (1639-1699) Biblical tragedy was first performed in 1691. This version, with English libretto by William Bartholomew (1793-1867), seems to be the first English edition, and, with its publisher's overstamp, the first American as well. It appears to be earlier than the editions in the NUC (cf. 375: 552-553) or in the Boston or New York Public Libraries catalogs. It certainly dates before 1867 when Ewer merged with Novello. Vg/ bound in 3/4 leather with name label on front cover of Charles F. Leonard (a bass if the pencil markings are his). Stock#OB201.
