This is a 300 DPI scan of the sheet music for M-O-T-H-E-R: A Word That Means the World to Me, a sentimental song composed by Theodore Morse with lyrics by Howard Johnson, published in 1915 by Leo Feist, Inc. The sheet music is arranged for piano and vocal performance and is written in E-flat major. The song uses an acrostic structure, with each letter of "MOTHER" representing a loving characteristic of a mother. The cover prominently advertises it as "Eva Tanguay's Great 'Mother' Song," highlighting her strong connection to the piece. However, this particular edition features Phil Dolan on the cover, suggesting that different versions highlighted various performers. Additionally, this copy has the owner Grace S. Wilson’s name handwritten on both the cover and inside pages. The file also includes advertisements for "World's Best Music Folios," showcasing popular song collections, operatic selections, and other music books that were widely distributed during the era.
