DESCRIPTION

The cover says: "A choice collection of catchy melodies effectively arranged for Solo Hawaiian Guitar with regular Guitar accompaniment." Just about says it all. Copyright 1925 by the Wm. J. Smith Co., New York. That puts it about 10 years into the American fascination with Hawaiian-style steel (or slide) guitar, which heavily influenced blues and jazz styles and was one of the main impetuses for the development of resonator and electric guitars.
