At the end of the 19th century, show business in America was a growing commercial enterprise. Publishing songs was a part of that business. Performers used professional sheet music but scores sold to the public had lively and colorful covers. The publisher E.T. Paull composed and published his own songs and published compositions by other composers. Paull was known for his popular colored lithographic song sheet covers. The National Museum of American History’s Archives Center, part of the Smithsonian Institution, has a wonderful and extensive collection of sheet music. The covers are vibrant and fun and show ideas and styles that were popular at the time. These covers have been reproduced for the first time in Sheet Music Covers 2012. Each month in this 12-month calendar features a colorful music cover and spacious grid with moon phases and international holidays. There are sections at the back of the calendar to record emergency contact information and birthdays/anniversaries and a full-page 3-year at-a-glance. Earth friendly, printed with soya-based inks on FSC certified paper.
