Wilde, Oscar. (1854–1900) [Baker, Charlie.]. "Oscar Mazurka" - Original Sheet Music with Mounted Photograph. Cincinnati, Ohio: F. W. Helmick. [1882]. First edition. Scarce original sheet music, including a mounted original photograph of Wilde in an attractive printed frame. 6 pp. First interior leaf of music partially torn (but fully present) and heavily creased, toned, but otherwise fine. Very scarce.
Wilde first came to America on a lecture tour arranged by the English impresario, Richard d'Oyly Carte (of Gilbert and Sullivan fame), arriving on the SS Arizona on January 3rd, 1882. On a grueling schedule, Wilde lectured in a new town every few days and though the tour was originally planned to last four months, it was continued for over a year. Though his press reception was hostile, Wilde's popularity among his audiences inspired the publication of several works like the present one, trading on his commercial success.
