Description: 7 Songs as Unpretentious as the Wild Rose Carrie Jacobs Bond Year Published ~ 1901 Voice/Piano The first female composer to sell over a million copies of her sheet music, Carrie Jacobs-Bond was born in Janesville, Wisconsin, in 1862. As a child, Jacobs-Bond had the ability to learn complex pieces of music by ear and from an early age she hoped to become a professional song writer. She achieved this childhood ambition, becoming the most successful female composer of her day and reportedly earning more than $1 million in royalties before the end of 1910. This collection, Seven Songs: As Unpretentious as the Wild Rose, included two of Jacobs-Bond’s most popular songs: “Just Awearyin’ for You” (lyrics by Frank Lebby Stanton) and “I Love You Truly.” The latter became a popular wedding song and is featured in the 1946 film It’s a Wonderful Life.

Des hold my hands tonight Condition This book's pages are free from any noticeable writing or tears. The binding is tight. The three staples holding the book together show signs of age or rust. The pages show signs of slight yellowing due to age. Pages 9, 10, 11, 12 have been dog eared/folded in the page corner so there is about a one-inch crease.
