The back panel is a list of available items "on sale at all music counters." Name and date in ink (Alice Addis '38) at top of front cover.

"Chopsticks" (original name "The Celebrated Chop Waltz") is a simple, widely known waltz for the piano. Euphemia Amelia Nightingale Allen (1861–1948) was a British composer. She composed the song "The Celebrated Chop Waltz" or now known as "Chopsticks" in 1877, at the age of 16, under the pseudonym Arthur de Lulli. She was the sister of music publisher Mozart Allen. Allen was the daughter of William Elder Allen, a well-known dancing instructor in Glasgow, and Agnes Allen (née Letham). The 1901 Scotland Census states her occupation as 'teacher of the piano forte'. According to her death certificate, Allen was a Music Publisher (retired). She never married. It is the only published piece by the British composer Euphemia Allen (under the pen name Arthur de Lulli). Allen—whose brother, Mozart Allan, was a music publisher—composed the piece, with arrangements for solo and duet. The title "Chop Waltz" comes from Allen's specification that the melody be played in two-part harmony with both hands held in a vertical orientation, little fingers down and palms facing each other, striking the keys with a chopping motion.

New York: The Museum of Modern Art, 1979. Presumed First Edition, First printing. Trade paperback. The format is approximately 9 inches by 11.5 inches. 168 pages. Illustrated front and back covers with flaps. Illustrations. Arthur Justin Drexler (13 March 1925 – 16 January 1987) was a museum curator and director of the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) for 35 years. Drexler attended the High School of Music and Art, and The Cooper Union studying architecture and served with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers during the Second World War. After the war Drexler worked with the office of industrial designer George Nelson and was Architecture Editor of Interiors magazine. Drexler joined the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1951 as Curator of Architecture and Design and was promoted to Director of the Department in 1956 succeeding Philip Johnson. Drexler has lectured at New York University, Yale University, Harvard University, Pratt Institute, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and other universities and institutions. Over thirty-five years Drexler conceived, organized and oversaw trailblazing exhibitions that foresaw major stylistic design developments in industrial design, architecture and landscaping. MoMA played a central role in examining the work of twentieth-century architects, among them Frank Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier, Richard Neutra, Marcel Breuer, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. Drexler’s pioneering shows promoted new ideas about architecture and design as modern arts and left an indelible mark on the course of midcentury modernism. In 1977, Drexler received the American Institute of Architects Medal for "vast contributions in documenting the art of architecture." More
Washington DC: Library of Congress, 2007. First Edition, First Printing. Hardcover. xxi, [3], 235, [3] pages. Illustrations (most in color). References. Index. The Kislak Collection represents a lifetime of collecting informed by passion and intellect, and this publication is a record of a life of collecting, learning, and exploring. The collection encompasses more than three thousand rare books, maps, manuscripts, historic documents, artifacts, and works of art related to early American history and the cultures of Florida, the Caribbean, and Mesoamerica. It is considered among the finest collections of its kind in the world, one that brings together material that is of equal interest to scholars and the general public. The collection includes unique materials documenting the early Americas from the time of the indigenous people of Mexico, Central America, and the Caribbean through the period of European contact, exploration, and settlement. Although it is one of the Library’s newest collections, clearly it is an important one for present and future generations. Assembled over the course of five decades by Jay Kislak, this collection would be impossible to assemble today. More than a collector, Jay Kislak is a discoverer. His inquisitiveness and thirst for knowledge have inspired a lifelong love of books. More
