Title: Cuba Plantation Dance
Author: [Music – Plantation Songs / Caribbean Slavery Imagery] Wilson, Chas. H.
Seller: Auger Down Books (United States)
Condition: Light edge wear and minor toning; very good with a strong impression of the cover illustration.
Description: Philadelphia: Edward L. Walker, 142 Chestnut St., above 6th, 1855. Folio sheet music, pictorial lithographed cover, approximately 13.5 × 10.5 inches. Light edge wear and minor toning; very good with a strong impression of the cover illustration.. An antebellum piano dance reflecting the plantation imagery that circulated widely in mid-nineteenth-century American popular music. “Cuba Plantation Dance” was composed by Chas. H. Wilson, a little-documented composer whose name appears chiefly in connection with this work, and issued in Philadelphia during the early 1850s by Edward L. Walker, the predecessor firm to the major publishing house Lee & Walker. A copy is recorded in the Levy Collection at Johns Hopkins, which dates the publication to 1855. The cover presents a stylized plantation landscape framed by tall stalks of sugar cane with a small central vignette of a dancing Black figure. The use of Cuban plantation imagery reflects contemporary American fascination with the Caribbean sugar economy and with plantation life beyond the United States. During the 1850s Cuba was one of the largest slave societies in the Atlantic world. By the midcentury the island’s sugar plantations relied on hundreds of thousands of enslaved Africans, and the enslaved population of Cuba was estimated at roughly 400,000 people in the 1840s–1850s, working primarily in the rapidly expanding sugar industry. Although Spain formally agreed to end the Atlantic slave trade in 1820, illegal importations of enslaved Africans into Cuba continued for decades, supplying labor for the island’s plantations well into the 1850s. American publishers frequently borrowed such imagery for plantation-themed dance music marketed to the parlor trade. Pieces labeled “plantation dances” or “Ethiopian dances” formed part of the broader culture of minstrel and plantation entertainment. The title page bears a dedication to “Miss Arabelle Conrad,” typical of mid-century sheet music addressed to amateur pianists. Along with the aforementioned copy in the Levy collection, we find copies at Michigan and Temple.

Condition: Illustrated wraps. Good
Description: Baltimore: Thos. J Sheubrooks, 1896. Staplebound. Illustrated wraps. Good. 30 pages. 22 x 14 cm. Featuring illustrated local Baltimore advertising throughout. Introduction by Mr. Seidewitz, followed by six days of concerts by the 5th Regiment Orchestra, with Charles Weber - Musical Director. Rules of Governing the competition, award amounts and a full page listing the Patrons and Patronesses of the show. Covers rubbed at edges and lightly toned. Mr. Seidewitz was one of the foremost florists in Maryland, ex-Mayor of Annapolis (1899-1901), former president of the Rotary Club and the President of the Baltimore Florists' Exchange. This Exchange was said to be the first organization in America dedicated to the exchange of trees, plants, flowers, and seeds in addition to the general sharing of horticultural knowledge among horticulturists and tradesmen who bought and sold flowers. Oddly enough, after Mr. Seidewitz was successful in ushering this Exchange into fruition, even propelling the construction of a new building to house this mutual florists' association, Mr. Seidewitz became a cruel victim of bullying by Baltimore Society during the first World War. According to the book The Illusion of Victory: America in W.W.I by Thomas J. Fleming, "shortly after war was declared, the florist met some officers from several German ships that had been trapped in Baltimore's harbor since 1914. They were in a gloomy mood, lamenting their long separation from friends and family and the prospect of internment as enemy aliens until the war ended. Seidewitz bought them beer, and they drank together. Touched by their plight, the florist kissed one of them on the forehead in an attempt to comfort the man. Word soon swept Baltimore that Seidewitz had 'kissed a German.' His floral business collapsed. He was expelled from the Rotary Club, after directors refused to let him speak to the members in his own defense." On August 24, 1918 Seidewitz committed suicide by revolver while his family was downstairs in their home on Old Pimlico Road.
