Collection-level Scope and Content Note

From the Collection:

The American Song Sheet Collection comprises a relatively cohesive group of 234 song sheets published in the United States (and principally in New York, by de Marsan) in the 1850's and during the early years of the Civil War. There are songs of African American interest, a few relating to events in the Civil War, and at least one exploiting a German accented singer. But of principal note are the fairly large number of songs dealing with the immigrant Irish or their native land, from "The Wearing of the Green" to numbers now wholly unfamiliar. Although the collection numbers only about a tenth of that listed in Wolf's bibliography, it includes a considerable number of items not listed in that standard source.
