The composer Adolphe Schubert who worked extensively for this publisher sadly remains obscure. The music publisher Leoni Lee went into partnership with Coxhead in 1845 until 1853 . Folio size with music. Trimmed across the top title and a small waterstain in bottom spine corner neither overly affecting magnificent portrait and cover else Good.
