The titles include Broke, Barefoot and Starry-Eyed, Don’t Say Goodbye When You Go, Flo from St. Joe, Mo., and Hit and Run Affair.
The Music Arrangements Series consists of four songs composed by Roseland. Each is a single sheet, some are original handwritten items. The titles include God Is, God Knows, God Does, He’s Never More Than Just a Touch Away, Nothing is Impossible, and Nothing is Impossible, which is the earliest item in the collection, copyrighted in 1944.
