Scope and Contents note
All of the music is for solo piano except for two accordion pieces. The 1910s is the most represented decade with many marches, waltzes, hesitation waltzes (including several copies of one by Arthur Pryor), two-steps, and some ragtime music. Sheet music dating after 1940 is mostly moving picture music or piano teaching aids. There are a few pieces with an armed forces theme. For military aeronautics, see series 2: Armed Forces. Most covers feature illustrations of airplanes. (circa 125 items)
