Welcome to Collecting Sheet Music, the chronicles of one man's quest to collect and preserve old sheet music. Rather than collecting for art purposes, as do many collectors of old sheet music, I am a professional musician and collect old sheet music for performance, study, and preservation. Most of my collection is from the jazz genre, but I also collect film music, Broadway show tunes and standards, pop and rock music, and many other types. I'll be posting details on specific aspects and parts of my collection, but more importantly, I'll be posting the many tips and tricks I've used to track down the vintage sheet music I'm looking for quickly. I hope this can be a both a resource and a community for other collectors of old sheet music -- please join the dialogue by adding comments. Thanks for visiting, and welcome to Collecting Sheet Music!

I think your idea of a community of sheet music collectors is excellent! I am also a collector for the many of the same reasons as you... I am a musician, and collect primarily for the music and the historical aspects. It's a great (and addictive) hobby!
