Pre-owned 1920-1950s popular Sheet Music. Many of these songs have decorative front covers and some from the 1920s and ‘30s were
especially stylish. If a front cover illustration is attributable to an artist or studio they will be
named e.g. Heath Robinson, Huntrods, Fred Lowe or Barbelle. Some titles were published
during the Second World War (1939 –45), sometimes in a smaller size when ink and paper
were in short supply.
These pieces of sheet music are secondhand, old and naturally enough, they may show signs
of wear and tear. However, most of them are in excellent condition but in a few cases we
consider that some damage such as edging tears, a shop stamp, pen marks or a signature are
reasonable imperfections considering the age of these manuscripts. There are no detailed
descriptions here as to the exact condition of the music listed below but please e-mail us for
an honest appraisal of any particular piece or title. As a guide, generally titles are priced in the
range £12 - £30 (US$30-$45) + post and packaging.
