Thanks chaps.

It was watching that fantastic 88 year old on the banjo that brought this cheery song to my attention.

I hope I can play like that at his age.

and another. Apologies for the slight off-centeredness of some and for the smallish pages, this was a permanent reserve holding (no check out/"in library use only") so I had to photocopy then scan, the in house binding was awkward and the flatbed scanner used to image the copies was dreadful...

any help in taking it and cleaning it up and straightening out any crooked pages would be greatly appreciated.

I think this is probably pretty rare, I had never seen it elsewhere.

Hello Scriabinoff,

Actually it is not a bad scan at all - I think I have this Suite somewhere and will look to see if mine is better, but I doubt it - I think my version is a photcopy (on thermal paper!)

AS I thought,

my scan is definitely inferior, (though perhaps better centred :-), and it seems I was missing a few pages as well.

So, nothing better to contribute,
thank you for posting.

regards,
