Livre
Soft cover. Etat : Good. Folio, softcover, wear to bottom edge, not affecting music or text, else good in gray wraps with black lettering. Sheet music is over 125 years old, but still holding up -- 6 pages beginning with the poem by Dunbar (last line says: when shall we meet? who knows, who knows) sheet music by this important black American poet.

Edition originale
Sheet music. Etat : Very good. First Australian edition. Folio, [4]pp., plus promotional materials. A very good copy, generally clean, and clearly removed from a binding at some point. Internal folded leaf is laid-in, which seems to be as issued, as there are no visible stitching/sewing holes or staple holes. Ernest R. Ball set the Dunbar poem to music, and it was published widely in the United States. This contemporary Australian edition is (predictably) considerabye scarcer - we note two holdings, both at the National Library of Australia. An important item for any Dunbar completist, or anyone interested in the global reach of African-American poetry or music during this period. The words "Sung by John McCormack" (a noted Irish singer of the period) appear printed on the title leaf.
