Patriotic 1918 songster prepared for a Saturday-night community sing-along in Dover, Delaware, organized to promote subscriptions to the Third Liberty Loan. These war bonds, issued by the U.S. Treasury in April of that year, helped finance American involvement in the First World War.

The program includes “God Save Our Men” (sung to the tune of “America”), “What Are You Going to Do to Help the Boys,” “Mother’s War Hymn!” (set to “Abide with Me”), “Over There,” and “The Star-Spangled Banner,” which had not yet been designated the national anthem. A note at the end announces a follow-up “Community Sing at the [Dover] Armory Tuesday night.”

Price: $35.00
