This sheet music cover pairs a waltz with a skating rink in St. Louis, so the image ties a popular dance tune to a sport that was then新 fashionable. Roller skating rinks spread across American cities in the late 1800s, and their evenings often featured organ or band music, which made the rink a natural subject for a published waltz. The lithograph was made by Studley & Co. and published by Compton & Doan. The record does not give a date, so the printing is placed within the 1830 to 1910 range assigned to other sheet music in the collection.
