This antique 1800s German Sammelband is a custom-bound collection of various pieces of piano sheet music gathered together into a single hardcover volume. During the 19th century, it was common for musicians and families to purchase individual pieces of sheet music and bring them to a local bookbinder to be custom-bound into a single volume, creating a Sammelband or collected music volume.
Measuring approximately 10.5 x 13 x 1.5 inches, this large-format antique music collection offers an interesting glimpse into historical music ownership, collecting, and bookbinding practices.
