A folio format measuring 13.5 inches tall approx., featuring a colour lithograph cover featuring the great ship, followed by five pages of music, and a rear cover advertising other pieces of dance music. The piece has been extracted from a bound collection of other music pieces, and has been trimmed mainly along the lower edge during the binding process, this mainly affects the covers where the composers name has been trimmed, and the base of the rear adverts, internally there has been some paper strengthening to page edges, this does not touch the actual music, just the edges of the staffs, (see pictures) else all contents are pictured so condition can be seen
