Description
What You Get
The Poor Old Man — with words by John Collins Squire and music by Albert Hay Malotte. From G. Schirmer, Inc. with 1939 copyright. For medium voice with piano accompaniment. The first page is shown so you can see how it starts. The essence of the words are an observation of a poor old man and how he lives and eats, and thanking God that “I’m not that poor old man.” This measures about 12″ x 9″ and has 8 pages with this song on 5 of them.
Condition
See photo above. Music is in reasonable condition for age with some edge tears and cover fold split. Name marked out on front cover but no markings on the music. From clean, smoke-free home.
Shipping
Generally sent the same day payment arrives. Unless you request otherwise, I will wrap the music in plastic wrap to help protect it from the elements, tightly sandwich it between pieces of cardboard, then wrap in brown paper to send via Media Mail with Delivery Confirmation tracking. See the shipping page for the cost to send a one-pound Media Mail package. Insurance is an additional cost as described. I am delighted to combine postage and insurance costs if you purchase more than one item. The second item may travel for free or just a few cents more — so it’s worth taking a look at my other items before you complete your order.
Not sure?
If you’d like more information or photos, or want to know the words to the song, please feel free to contact me. If it’s the price you don’t like, make an offer!
