The Picture Postcard Polka

Post by eastlondonpostcard »

composed by Ida Hampden - don't know when, but I know that she died in 1912 - anyone heard of it, I wonder?

By Miss Beatrice Ida Hampden. wife of Ezra Read.

The site link below takes you to a page with images of some Ida Hampden covers. The site is more about Ezra Read than Hampden but an email to the site owner might be a very good starting point from which to find out more.

From the above site here is an image of both Read and Hampden

The National Library of Australia has lots of examples of Reads work but none that I can find of Hampden, here is a link http://catalogue.nla.gov.au/Search/Home ... ubmit=Find
