Customer Reviews

This is the definitive book to own

By far and away, if you need a price guide to sheet music values, this is a "must have" book. Warning, it doesn't have every single piece ever printed, but it must have 95% of them. With the changing economy over the years, you can't take the prices as realistic, but it will give you an idea of relative value. There is no current substitute for this book; it's the best reference book available - I would suggest to buy it without hesitation.

Excellent Resource

I was researching almost 100 pieces of late 1800's to 1930's sheet music from my mother's house, and found almost all of them in the book. In addition to listing the titles alphabetically, with prices, there are cross references to performers, composers, cover artists and genres. An excellent resource for the collector.

If you have some old sheet music that you wish to sell, then this is the guide for you! I highly recommend this book!

Super Reference Work For Sheet Music Collectors

Thank You

I'd like to thank all the people who bought my mother, Marie's, book. She died July 25, 1998. Many of you continue to call about the book and she would be very grateful for your continuing praise.She was about to update the book for the 3rd edition but that was not to be. Thank You
