Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Not a book but a 12-inch, 33-1/3 rpm "Simulated Stereo" record album, Decca DL 75125, very-good-plus vinyl in a very good cardboard jacket, which includes 12 cuts, 6 per side (which is odd, since the original radio episodes were 30 minutes -- presumably 22 or so minus the ads. But even shorn of cereal ads, "How He Became The Lone Ranger, Part 1 and Part 2," here runs seven minutes, meaning it's been edited down by two-thirds. Next come "He finds Silver, Part 1 and Part 2," then "He Finds Dan Reid, Part 1 and Part 2," all on one side. Meantime, why Decca opted to devote the jacket's entire front panel to the old joke that sees the Ranger and his faithful Indian companion coming under Indian attack, at which point Tonto delivers the time-worn punchline "What you mean WE, paleface?" we can't imagine. Though, combined with the chain-saw editing of the original episodes, we must conclude the Decca gang simply evinced no respect for the (admittedly somewhat derivative) mythmaking of WXYZ station owner George Trendle and scriptwriter Fran Striker -- and wasn't about to waste time soliciting cast photos.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Some light edgewear and closed tears along edges, interior fine. Lovely cover art. Pianoforte score. John J. Fitzgerald was a composer working in the tradition of light classical and salon style piano music, producing pieces intended for amateur and recreational pianists rather than concert performance. His work falls within a genre that was particularly popular in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, when there was a substantial market for appealing and accessible piano compositions that could be enjoyed in domestic settings by players of moderate ability. Pieces of this type were a staple of parlor music culture and remained in circulation through sheet music publishers catering to the broad middle ground between serious classical repertoire and purely popular music. Falling Waters Reverie is a character piece for solo piano that evokes through its title and musical content the imagery of flowing or cascading water. The reverie as a musical form or character piece type implies a mood of gentle contemplation and dreaming, and the combination of that quality with the water imagery suggested by the title points toward a piece that is lyrical, flowing, and unhurried in character. Pieces built around water imagery were extremely common in the salon and light classical piano repertoire, as the rippling and cascading patterns that water suggest translate naturally into idiomatic piano writing, particularly in the right hand where flowing arpeggiated or scalar passages can effectively conjure the impression of moving water. The piece would be expected to feature a singing melodic line set against a fluid accompaniment pattern, with the overall mood remaining gentle and pleasant throughout. The harmonic language would likely be conventional and accessible, prioritizing beauty of sound and ease of listening over complexity or challenge, in keeping with the traditions of the genre. Will Wood was a music publisher operating within the commercial sheet music industry, producing and distributing music aimed at the broad amateur market. Publishers of this type played an essential role in the musical culture of their era, acting as the primary means by which composers reached the public before the age of recording and broadcasting transformed how music was consumed and distributed. Sheet music publishing was a significant commercial enterprise during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, with publishers actively seeking out compositions that would appeal to amateur pianists and sell well through music shops and mail order catalogs. Publishers such as Will Wood typically handled a wide range of material including popular songs, dance music, instructional pieces, and light classical character pieces of the kind that Falling Waters Reverie represents. The relationship between composers and publishers of this type was often transactional, with composers selling their work outright or receiving royalty arrangements in exchange for the publisher taking on the costs of engraving, printing, and distributing the sheet music. Sheet music of this era was notable not only for its musical content but also for the visual presentation of its covers, and illustration played an important role in making publications attractive and commercially appealing. It was common practice for publishers to commission decorative cover artwork that reflected the mood or subject matter of the piece inside, and a beautifully illustrated cover could significantly enhance the appeal of a publication on a music shop display. The Starmer brothers were both active as commercial illustrators during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and produced a considerable body of work for the sheet music publishing industry among other commercial clients. Walter S. Starmer and his brother were known for their decorative and appealing cover illustrations that graced a large number of sheet music publications during this period. Their work ref.

Soft cover. Condition: Good. Lovely piece of original, large format sheet music. Some edgewear and stapled spine, otherwise a fine clean copy - piano and lyrics. According to Wikipedia" Anthony John Stastny was born on June 3, 1885, in Cleveland, Ohio, to Bohemian immigrant parents. Sometime after 1910, he modified the original Bohemian spelling of his surname from Stastny to Stasny. Music bearing the A.J. Stasny name appeared as early as 1908, and the firm was formally chartered as a New York corporation in 1922. He relocated to New York City in 1910, composed numerous popular songs and piano solo works, and also served as musical director for the magician Howard Thurston. By 1920, the company had grown into one of the largest music publishing firms in the country, with branch offices in 18 large cities including Philadelphia, Chicago, San Francisco, and London, employing over 200 people and grossing over a million dollars a year."James Royce Shannon, born James Royce on May 13, 1881, in Adrian, Michigan, was an Irish-American composer and lyricist who was nationally prominent during the Tin Pan Alley era. He is best known for writing the lyrics to "The Missouri Waltz," the state song of Missouri, and for composing "Too Ra Loo Ra Loo Ral," the Irish Lullaby, which became famous decades later when Bing Crosby performed it in the film Going My Way. Shannon organized his own theatrical company, with which he toured the United States and Europe. He later managed a chain of music stores, served as assistant manager and director of weekly shows at Detroit's Majestic Theater, and worked as drama critic for the Detroit Free Press, also composing special material for vaudeville. He died on May 19, 1946. For Rose Dreams he supplied the pastoral lyric text, evoking dewdrops on roses, soft breezes, birdsong, and the fading light of evening, perfectly suited to the reverie mood of Stasny's melody. Again citing Wikipedia "The name "Starmer" on the Rose Dreams cover refers to brothers William Austin Starmer and Frederick Waite Starmer, noted sheet music cover artists born in Leeds, England. "Starmer" is a household name to collectors of sheet music and appears on innumerable covers from the early 1900s to the 1940s. William Austin Starmer lived from 1872 to 1955, and Frederick Waite Starmer from 1878 to 1962. By some accounts, the brothers were responsible for nearly a quarter of all signed covers published during that era. Their work was of consistently high quality, and they were producing nearly a quarter of all large-format covers from the late 1890s to around 1919. The identity of the artists was unknown for some time until an invoice was discovered from William A. Starmer to the Jerome Remick Music Company, with a printed heading describing him as artist and medical draughtsman. William arrived in North America in 1898, with Frederick following two years later, and the two brothers made frequent visits back to England until 1924, when they became naturalized American citizens. The cover art for Rose Dreams has been noted by collectors as particularly beautiful and suitable for framing, typical of the Starmers' romantic style"Together, the three collaborators — Stastny, Shannon, and the Starmer brothers — represent the full apparatus of the Tin Pan Alley sheet music world at its height: a composer-publisher driving the commercial enterprise, a versatile lyricist supplying the words, and master illustrators whose cover art made the piece something buyers wanted to display as much as to play.
