Description

"Blue Devils March," by J. M. Luzier, published by W. A. Quincke and Company, Los Angeles, 1918. The cover shows a group of infantry in formation on a dock and one soldier holds a French flag. In the background is part of a large ship and, in the distance, is the Statue of Liberty. The Army's 88th Infantry Division during the First World War was known as the "Blue Devils." The instrumental is in march tempo and the back page has samples of other songs offered by the publisher. With small edge tears, creases, soiling and a sticker at the upper left, the overall condition is good.
