Decorative Japanese Sheet Music
We have obtained a small collection of vintage Japanese sheet
music. The songs come from several sources but they all appear
to be songs in the public domain. All of these pieces share wonderful
graphics; some in a distinctly Asian style others with a European
or American flair. We have no precise knowledge of the exact dates
of these pieces but they do appear to have some age.
