Scope and Content

A collection of all issues of Sheet Music magazine from 1985. From a Washington Post article on the subject: "In its heyday, the magazine boasted 150,000 paid subscribers who every two months (reduced to quarterly in the final years) would get a sampling of hits, “hidden gems” and golden oldies from the Great American Songbook, in arrangements pitched not to the professional but to the parlor-room amateur. Drawing on the vast back catalogs of publishers such as Warner Brothers, Big 3 Music and the Songwriters Guild, Sheet Music Magazine offered up a steady diet of Jerome Kern, Harry Warren, Johnny Mercer, Irving Berlin and Jerry Herman, along with a generous smattering of jazz, folk songs, and Irish, patriotic and Christmas music as the season warranted." Sheet Music issued its last magazine in Fall of 2012, after 36 years of publication.
