Kirk Collection:
Popular Song Index
(Professional/Artist Song Sheets)
(Complete List)

All titles have been digitized.
Songs published through 1923 may be viewed or downloaded
from this page or a contents gateway .

Fair-use restrictions apply to post-1923 materials,
so you must formally request copies
(see e-mail links below).

The Popular Song Index contains popular songs published from ca.1900-1972. The collection consists mostly of 22 x 28 cm. (8 1/2 x 11 in.) professional/artist song sheets. Pagination varies, and many of the song sheets, particularly the older ones, are fragile. They were used by music and department stores to promote sheet music sales. The entire collection of sheet music and professional/artist song sheets has approximately 7,500 items.

According to the latest database count, there are 2,614 professional/artist specimens of sheet music. Albeit infrequently, additions are made to the collection. When this happens, these pages will be updated. Songs without publication dates have yet to be analyzed and their dates or publication eras identified. Until this occurs, fair-use restrictions apply to this music as well.

The professional sheet music is housed as part of the Kirk Collection in the Special Collections Department of Cunningham Memorial Library at Indiana State University. An indexed version of the data is also available.

The Kirk Collection contains in excess of 14,000 examples of popular music in various genres from approximately 1900 until 1972. For additional information or photocopy requests, contact Special Collections . For general questions regarding other collections in or policies of the Special Collections Department, e-mail the department at librbsc@library.indstate.edu or call 812/237-2611.
