BOUND VOLUME OF POPULAR SHEET MUSIC 1850'S TO 1880'S

Various. Book size about 10 by 13 inches with some 38 pieces of sheet music bound together. Most by well known music publishers. The music is a mix of sentimental popular songs and those of a more religious nature (Church-type music was popular in those days). Dates were printed on the music for 17 of the pieces and range from 1857 to 1888. I believe the remainder are from the same period with most in the 1870's. Some of the music is: Constancy by W H Pontius; Waltz of Love by S C Marchesi; In Old Madrid by Trotere; Bobolink by J W Bischoff; Where Are Now The Hopes I Cherished by Bellini; Loves Request by Reichardt; Tell Her I Love Her So by De Faye; Let Me Dream Again by Arthur S Sullivan; Whispering Hope by Alice Hawthorne; Juanita by May; Sweet Spirit Hear My Prayer by Wm. Vincent Wallace; At Evening the Weary Shall Rest by C F Shattuck; Lord God Almighty by C C Stearns/Verdi. The bulk of the music identified by date falls in the 1860 to 1870's range. Covers heavily worn and loose; spine covering gone; occasional tape repair to music; other moderate wear and soil. An unusual find--I don't often see groups of music from the 1870's era.
