Texas Centennial Ltd. Ed.  Yellow Rose of Texas
<B>Five Copies of the Texas Centennial Limited Edition Sheet Music for "The Yellow Rose of Texas"</B></I>. A group of five copies of the ballad that brings tears to the eyes of all true Texans. This special edition limited to 300 copies was published for the Texas Centennial in 1936. Four of the copies measure 9" x 11.25" and contain six pages of musical notation arranged for piano and guitar. Each of the four is hand numbered and signed by Mary Daggett Lake, historical research chairman for the Texas Centennial, and William J. Marsh, composer of the Texas state song "Texas, My Texas" on the limitation page. The fifth copy is slightly larger than the other four, 9.5" x 12", but is internally identical in every other respect. This larger copy has been inscribed to Mary Daggett Lake in pencil on the front cover. The cover of this larger copy has toned slightly with age, else all copies are in near fine condition.<BR><BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
