Lot 98
Compiled by music publisher and composer Joe Davis (18961978), the softcover, stapled-wrapper songbook was aggressively marketed for home use, amateur theatricals, and professional radio programs. The booklet compiles a variety of performance materials: Complete vocal scores featuring words and piano music, including period pieces like "Dixie Jamboree" Scripted routines, monologues, and comedic interstitial material typical of old-time vaudeville stage formatting The folio heavily utilizes racial caricatures and "Darky-ology" humor sections. It serves today as a primary academic source for studying how traditional, visual blackface minstrelsy transitioned into "aural blackface" audio routines for early 1930s radio broadcasts.
