Wait? What? It's a rar file in two parts. The forum board annuls the usage of attachments in excess of 15MB. Thus, I had to to split the original pdf file.
Download both rars and extract the content.

Just for the sake of it. Click where it says "Create Download Link" and afterwards "Click Here to Download"

De Aggelos:

Thank you so much, I was confused; I believed that it was two volumes.

I already downloaded it from peejeshare.

Hello,

Thank you very much for the Tickles piece, Tecnicvincent. Much appreciated.

Now, I'm wondering what "book" it comes from and what is on the preceding 18 pages (and subsequent ones) !!

Thanks again.

Regards,

Hi everyone,

I just want to thank you SO MUCH for all you've done to preserve so much great music!!! Special thanks to Frank & Toby and others I may not be thinking of at the moment (I'm still trying to wake up this Saturday morning . I haven't been here since Jan. (it's been a busy past few months) but I went back on yesterday and began downloading.

TobyJJ, I have all the Harold Dixon pieces you mentioned and can scan them if you still need them (I'm only up to about April in the postings--but a search for Dixon didn't yield any more music so I'm assuming you do still need them). Just let me know! And thanks again everyone for all your hard work and your willingness to share.

Rob

Hello Rob C,

Thanks for the kind words and Yes, please I would still like the Harold Dixon pieces as I haven't been able to track them down yet.

Thanks and regards,

Hi Toby,

Yes, I do have all 8 of his novelties and one of his songs (with a cover photo of the composer). 8 years ago this month my wife and I were wandering through individual booths in a large antique store (you don't see many antique stores these days due to the internet--ah, the times are a changin') when I saw a tiny stack of sheet music on someone's top shelf (I'm quite tall). 5 of Dixon's novelties were in that stack, so we bought them for a dollar each (those were the good old days! ). The other 3 I have as decent photocopies.

For the first scan I'm uploading "Snuffins." It's actually in our piano bench! We like it that much. We like all his other novelties too (but, "Toy Town Topics" sounds a LOT like "Doll Dance").

Also, I've already made midis of all 8 of his novelties, so, since I have those right at hand, I'm uploading those too.

Enjoy!

Rob
