Description: THE TALE OF THE SNOW FLAKE. 1905. Rare sheet music. Song lyrics by W. L. TITUS, melody by FLORENCE McPHERRAN. One of the Musical Gems from THE GIRL AND THE BANDIT staged by Frank Smithson for the Frank L. Perley Opera Company. Book and lyrics by Cornelia Osgood Tyler and music by Frederick Coit Wight. The song was written for and dedicated to MISS VIOLA GILLETTE whose photograph is in the cover. She also sends a copy of a hand written thank you note to McPherran reproduced on the back cover. This beautiful musical production song from 1905 is a rare find. It tells of a cavalier knight declaring his undying love for his sweetheart, his Snow Flake. Just look at that beautiful cover with the photo of this young American contralto. The piece is the large 10” by 13” size and is suitable for framing. The music falls under the categories of Vintage & Antique, Sheet Music & Song Books. This would be a great addition to any music lover's collection. The piece was copyrighted and published by the Sterling Music Company of Chicago The overall condition of the piece is good. Defects are a 5-1/4” tear at the bottom of the fold, and a 1” tear at the top of the fold, a small tear at the top of the back cover and the paper has a little of the normal age discoloring to be expected on paper of this vintage. There are no markings. Will be shipped by USPS media mail within the US. I try my best to accurately describe my listings. If you as a buyer have any questions or concerns either before or after purchase please feel free to contact me and I will resolve them to your satisfaction and to the best of my ability.
