About This Item
New York: Hebrew Publishing Co, 1911. First Edition. Music sheet, 34cm x 26cm; 4pp. Original lithographed cover (signed Jacob Keller) with halftone portrait insets. Slight toning to extremities, still Near Fine. Uncommon sheet memorializing the victims of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire. Lyrics are printed in Hebrew and transliterated Yiddish; only the title is supplied in English (and the title is spelled differently on cover and first page).
The cover illustration is a full-length portrait of composer Joseph Rumshisky, with inset halftone portraits of the lyricist, Anshel Schorr, and performer Hyman J. Ginsburg. Heskes notes that the composition "appears to be a song whose lyrics were quickly augmented to reflect a tragic event." OCLC gives one location (Harvard); Marwick Roster No. 13359; HESKES 390.
