Sheet MusicThe publication of folio-size sheets of American popular music dates to the…
The packaging the music is in is modern, (maybe 1970s or so)... it was re-packaged to sell as a collectible. You'll probably have to open the package to see if there's a copyright date on the inside. However, my experience is that old sheet music has very little value. But it's fun to collect and display.
Yes You are correct. I have several of these and tho they are not worth much,they are unique and fun to share. Thanks stefdesign.
You're welcome. I love my small sheet music collection, it's just fun to look at, and makes a nice addition to almost any collection. I collect toys, so I love sheet music that's about toys. I know some people frame their old sheet music. Years ago, when I was in college, one of my friends covered an entire folding screen with vintage sheet music. It looked great! (Today I'd probably cringe at that- because it required glueing the music down!)
Yes, taking it out of the package and glueing it down makes me cringe too!!!!
