Description
Sheet music for piano and voice, titled “They All Take After Me”, appearing as two bifold folio sheets (8 pages total). The cover features a lithograph of Harry Randall, surrounded by six small vignettes, labelled “We go in for Monday Pops”; “Arabella going for two half quarterns of ‘unsweetened’ (N.B. It looks so much better to be seen wandering about the a tea-pot than with a jug or bottle)”; “Well I think Father ought to keep us (Two of my boys)”; “You jest look more cheerful of I’ll soon make yer (A sample of my married sons)”; “Our natural enemy”; and “The only work we do”. The third page attributes the arrangement to John S. Baker. Four stanzas are listed on the back inside cover.
Notes
Also includes a list of Francis, Day, & Hunter’s Newest Comic Songs on the back page.
This item looks to have been torn from a larger book, as the spine is partially detached and shows evidence of gluing.
