Description

This lot features a framed piece of sheet music titled "The Perfect Song," known as the musical theme for "The Pepsodent Hour" featuring Amos 'n' Andy. Dating back to the early 20th century, this item captures a significant era in American radio and cultural history. The sheet music, composed by Clarence Lucas with lyrics by Joseph Carl Breil, is vividly illustrated with iconic caricatures of the show's main characters, Amos Jones and Andrew H. Brown, which reflect the racial stereotypes of the time. The piece is encased in a simple black frame, highlighting its vibrant red background and striking graphic design. This collectible not only represents a piece of entertainment history but also serves as a conversation starter about the evolution of racial representations in media. Ideal for collectors of Americana, radio memorabilia, or those with a keen interest in the history of broadcasting.
