A note to say that the volume has
1. Two extracts from "Quelque impressions sur la danseuse Nina Payne" by Holland/Hollande Robinson (1897-1945) ( I think young
Holland sailed to Paris from Tacoma Washington and became
Hollande until he returned to live in New York). The extracts are very short, and have been digitised here:

I haven't been able to find any other scores by Robinson as they seem to have been mostly released in limited signed editions and turn up in antiquarian catalogues as his life-partner Mac Harshberger illustrated them. The following article contains some snippets from his 1928 song-cycle "Loose Lyrics for Lovely Ladies"

2. Sigtenhorst-Meyer's Op.16 Prélude. The book refers to it as Op.10, but this article corrects the matter.

For future reference, I include its works-index here (Google-translated from the Dutch) as the recent disc of his piano works on the Toccata label only has a small sampling of early works.
