Woodward 1 HISTORIAN Vol. 41, No.3 (Whole No. 196) August 2013 PRESIDENT’S LETTER For our Society, the first three days of July are an important milestone, being the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg. Reportedly, over 10,000 re-enactors took part in the commemorations. Perhaps it is time to re-consider the postal history connections of the battle. Certainly there was mail from both sides posted in or near the town before, during and after. I don't possess any, but I'm sure some of our members do. That would make a fascinating article, particularly as social philatelic history is a coming trend. Even better would be if a member had access to personal correspondence from his ancestors. I don't, but I sure wish I did. My maternal great-grandfather was too young for the war, but he had four older brothers in the 19th Mississippi, one of whom fell at Gettysburg. Were any of them able to write, or even to read “cursive"? Another question about the war concerns which, if any Adams County post offices were occupied, looted, or burned by Lee's forces. Was mail seized? Does any Confederate correspondence posted in Pennsylvania survive? It all goes to show that state and county postal history is much, much more than just collecting postmarks, which is what we are sometimes accused of. Share what you have of the social philatelic history of your town or county in these pages. On another subject, I just completed my goal of visiting (and finding a “geo-cache” in) each of the 67 Pennsylvania counties. Now I'm working on getting a cover from each.

Our new and updated web site is up and running thanks to our new Webmaster Steve Kennedy. Please check it out ( www.paphs.org ) and send Steve any comments or suggestions. I especially enjoyed preparing this issue because it contains a mix of some new discoveries as well as some fun to read articles. The issue begins with two new discoveries; one by our past president and the other by one of our newer members. Rick Leiby describes “A New Chestnut Hill Marking” while David Latzko idetifies “ The Shenks Ferry Doane Cancellation” with the newly found current LKU. Later in the issue (page 23), Bill Schultz illustrates a “ New EKU for Exton, Pa. Doane Cancel”. It’s the middle of the baseball season with the Phillies struggling in 3 rd place in the NL st East, while the Pirates are contending for 1 place in the NL Central. Certainly a nice time for Gus Spector’s entertaining and nostalgic article entitled “ ONE, TWO, THREE STRIKES YER OUT!” The article tells the history of the A. J, Reach Co. of Philadelphia and the impact of the Reach family on baseball in the late 19 th and early 20 th Century. While the PA legislature struggles with the question of state liquor store privatization, the last vestige of the prohibition era, we are fortunate to have an entertaining article by Cliff Woodward entitled “ Pennsylvania Prohibition Covers ”. Using covers and ephemera, Cliff describes the temperance movement in Pennsylvania during the latter half (Continued on page 9) MEMBERSHIP SUMMARY Total Membership as of 4/15/13 --------------------------------------------------------------- 110 New Members -------------------------------------------------------------------- + 4 # 591 John D.

The cover has been examined by the APS expertizing service and was returned with an opinion of genuine in all respects on certificate 201479 dated 11/28/2012. Figure 1 Philadelphia county post offices have long been an area of high collecting interest and it seems unusual that a marking of this type would go unnoticed until now. However, there are extensive archives of paper from the stampless period and still diamonds to be mined. The marking itself is unusual when closely examined. It has characteristics that would lead one to believe it was hand drawn rather than from a typeset device. Figure 2 is a scan of only the marking. The Postmaster or clerk who rated the cover also drew an outline box th around the marking, corrected the date from the 15 to the 14th and overwrote the PA letters in the same ink as the rating. When the marking itself is closely examined, the “H” in HILL doesn’t appear to match the “H” in CHESTNUT. Under the U there is a small “N” of a different style.

  • Songs of the Ziegfeld Follies
    SONGS OF THE ZIEGFELD FOLLIES DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University by Ann Ommen, B.M., M.A. The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Professor Graeme Boone, Adviser Approved by Professor Thomas Postlewait Professor Danielle Fosler-Lussier _________________________ Adviser Graduate Program in Music Copyright by Ann Ommen 2007 ABSTRACT Enormously popular in their own time, the Ziegfeld Follies have become an icon of American popular culture. Produced annually by Florenz Ziegfeld, Jr. between 1907 and 1931, these revues were and still are best-known for their lavish production numbers which brought unprecedented attention to members of the chorus. They have served as inspiration for generations of filmmakers, playwrights, and popular authors, but have only been studied by a small number of scholars, primarily those working in cultural studies. For the first time, this dissertation brings a musicological identity to the Follies by examining their songs. It addresses the legends surrounding certain songs so that their performance history can be better understood. It discusses representations of gender, race, and national identity in songs of the Follies, revealing the cultural beliefs Ziegfeld thought would be most acceptable to his largely white, middle-class audiences. It dissects comic song performances to show a specifically musical component to the humor of the Follies. Finally, it analyzes compositional techniques in the lyrics of Gene Buck and in the songs written by Irving Berlin for the Ziegfeld Follies of 1927 , the only Follies production to have been written by a single songwriter.

  • Over There” – Nora Bayes (1917) Added to the National Registry: 2005 Essay by Cary O’Dell
    “Over There” – Nora Bayes (1917) Added to the National Registry: 2005 Essay by Cary O’Dell “Over There” sheet music Original release label George M. Cohan featuring Nora Bayes A song forever intertwined with American patriotism and World War I especially, Nora Bayes’ “Over There” was named to the National Recording Registry in 2005. “Over There” was the work of prolific Broadway tunesmith George M. Cohan who supposedly wrote the tune while on a train, inspired by a rash of war-related headlines on the newspapers around him. It would prove to be Cohan’s only song ever written not specifically for a stage musical. It would also prove to be the final piece of Cohan’s patriotic, if unofficial, musical triptych, positioned after “Yankee Doodle Dandy” (written in 1904) and “You’re a Grand Ole Flag” (written in 1906). Though some sources credit Broadway singer Charles King with the first public performance of “Over There,” Bayes quickly became identified with the song, and she is praised in period accounts for public renditions of the song even before she recorded it for Victor on July 13, 1917. Her recording competed with strong versions by various male soloists, quartets and orchestras, including ones by Enrico Caruso and Billy Murray, a leading performer of Cohan songs who had scored a massive hit in 1906 with his version of “You’re a Grand Old Rag.” It is her version of “Over There,” however, that has endured. Bayes (born Eleanora Goldberg on October 3, 1880) was a major star of early 20th century recording, Broadway and vaudeville.

  • Music Therapy Master Song Resource List
    University of Kansas Music Therapy Song Repertoire Resource List Spring 2021 The KU music therapy song repertoire resource list acts as a reference for music therapy students as they work to develop a diverse repertoire of songs for use in their musical, pre-clinical, and clinical work. As such, it is a both a document of important songs that have historically been used in music therapy processes, and a living, breathing document that will be updated intermittently to maintain the dynamic of new musics. Songs are categorized and divided into music genres. Genres provide some level of diversity. Current genres in the book are provided as a general list on page 2, and then each genre is presented alphabetically, with songs in each genre also presented alphabetically. This approach helps to make finding songs easier. Some songs will be cross-referenced. Each song will include either an original artist or the song’s author (or both), as well as the year the song was written. This list can help students learn more songs, not only for singing and accompaniment purposes, but also for using recordings of songs when appropriate. Students are strongly encouraged to locate and listen to original recordings of songs to help their learning processes. Original notation in lead sheets is also helpful, especially for students that excel in reading. A good ear and solid music reading skills help for music therapists to be efficient in their learning of new songs. Also, looking up the history of a song helps a clinician make important decisions on how the music may connect with a client, increasing the potential for its effective use.
