Default Sheet Music ? Library of Congress ??

Posted By: barrysloate

Shawn- there are four full color baseball sheet musics from the 1860's that are among the finest color prints of the 19th century game. They are:

1860 Live Oak Polka
1861 Home Run Quickstep
1862? Baseball Quadrille
1867 Baseball..?? (I forgot the title, and I'm away from my reference materials, it was published by Goodman).

These are the only four issued in full color lithography. I have the first two in my own collection, and one of the regular posters on the board has all four.

Maybe someone could post scans of one or more of them, as I am unable. Thank you.
