While looking for some sheet music at the local antique stop (for a project of course),
I found a few booklets where the cover was more stunning than the faded note pages themselves.
Dated from the 1920's this shameless sweetie is what I would call hot to trot!
Ruby red lips, flawless alabaster skin, bare shoulders under a daring hair cut...
...boy, did they know how to advertise!
This beauty is a little more wholesome and sweet.
Maybe even a little frumpy if your saw Swanee first.
But the bonnet covered head lends itself to a more soft-spoken kind of romance.

Love the sheet music, especially the covers. They sure did know how to advertise back in the day.
I love them! I've got a couple of music sheet covers myself that I absolutely adore. Nice find!

Pretty covers and I can't believe they were only a $1.00!
Those are beautiful covers. I love the old time advertising.
Wow you did well for so little money!!

Lovely, such a deal. You are reminding me that I should frame a couple of the ones I have. They really are unique.
Love your finds! Thanks for sharing! :-)
Beautiful sheet music covers, so reminiscent of long ago days when things were simple and lovely.
Very pretty music covers. I love the frame on your blog and the door knob a lot!
Those covers are so cool!
What a great find for a $1! They're all so pretty. Isn't the detail just amazing? I'm now following on Linky Follower and GFC. I look forward to more inspiring posts.
I so love vintage sheet music myself. Most of the covers are lovely enough to frame.
Thanks for sharing.
