I'd Rather be at Block Island Than Any Place I Know Sheet Music 1913 Original Empire Theatre Rhode Island

by

Jack Brennan & James Tammany

Empire Theatre Co.; Block Island, 1913. Original sheet music. The Empire Theatre was built in 1882. About 1910, movies were shown on a regular basis, during the great silent era and the building was for the first time called the Empire Theatre. In 1913, the theater even produced a song, a four-page piece of sheet music titled Id Rather Be At Block Island Than Any Place I Know. It was written by James Tammany. The gist, universal appeal, and faultless logic of the lyrics can be appreciated in the opening line: Summers the time that we all like best cause vacation time is here. The Empire persevered through the Roaring 20s, the Depression 30s (when movies were needed most), and the relaxed poverty of the 50s. This is a great and beautiful piece to gift, collect or even frame and hang on the wall as a collectors item. The item is very clean and unmarked, original letterpress production, NOT a reprint or facsimile. 4to[quarto or approx. 9.5 x 12 inches], 5pp only. We pack securely and ship daily with delivery confirmation on every book. The picture on the listing page is of the actual book for sale. Additional Scan(s) are available for any item, please inquire.
