Description:
A charming piece of early 20th-century American musical theater, The Second Violin comes from the operetta Apple Blossoms, presented by famed Broadway producer Chas. Dillingham. With music by legendary violinist and composer Fritz Kreisler alongside Victor Jacobi, and lyrics by Wm. LeBaron, this sheet music reflects the graceful romantic style and melodic warmth of pre-jazz Broadway.
The cover design features elegant floral illustration and period typography, making this a wonderful example of theatrical ephemera from the post-World War I era. Light archival reinforcement has been applied to preserve the original folds—an appropriate and professional measure for sheet music of this age. Ideal for musicians, collectors of Broadway history, or for framing as decorative vintage paper.
