[Binder's Collection: Schieffelin, Book 2]
Bound compilation of sheet music with the surname Schieffelin attached. The collection was bound in Yonkers, New York, which strongly suggests a location for the owner, and digitized historical newspapers and genealogical records do show a prominent Schieffelin family in that city. Three quarters of the titles in the volume are variations, of which five were composed from various sources by Henri Herz. The collection includes a variety of publishers and locations in Europe and the United States. Where dates can be determined, they range from 1821 through the 1840s.

Bound compilation of sheet music from the collection of Thurman Morrison. The contents were assembled by Edith Mills Peachey, and the 57 works in this volume include multiple ballads, quadrilles, polkas, and waltzes, with five different compositions by Henry Russell. Other composers with two works in the collection include Edwin Flood, Charles E. Horn, Louis Antoine Jullien, and Camille Schubert. About half of the works were published or co-published by the Musical Bouquet Office. All titles were published in London, but they cover a geographical scope including the British Isles and continental Europe, along with past and contemporaneous areas of British colonization in North America and India.

[Binder's Collection: Mary Waddington]
Bound compilation of sheet music from the collection of Thurman Morrison, compiled by Mary Alsop King Waddington, an author who was born in New York, but lived in France beginning in 1871, and was married to French statesman William Henry Waddington. This volume consists largely of excerpts from operatic works, particularly by Gaetano Donizetti, Saverio Mercadante, Gioacchino Rossini, and Giuseppe Verdi. Most works were published in Paris, with a few published in Mayence (present-day Mainz), Vienna, and Boston.

[Binder's Collection: Schieffelin, Book 1]
Bound compilation of sheet music with the surname Schieffelin attached. Nearly all works in this volume are derivative works by Henri Herz, with two by Jacques Herz. The titles are largely fantasies or variations on works by other composers (including four by Gaetano Donizetti), with a particular emphasis on operas. A majority of works were published in Mayence (present-day Mainz), and some in Anvers (better known as Antwerp), Paris, Bonn, and New York. B. Schott or Fils de B. Schott published or co-published most titles, and works in this volume range in date from 1825 through 1855. The stamp of music seller C. Breusing on works throughout the volume provides insights on how the works were acquired.
