An interesting manuscript collection of French songs, ca. 1820. Each song titled in a different color ink, with the indication "à prendre," or “à faire” or "air le bien aimer," or "air du vaudeville" etc. and with many of the song authors cited. An attractive manuscript of 44 pages, beautifully calligraphied and enhanced by the use of colored inks and occasional ornaments, bound at the spine with three silk ribbons. The first and last pages somewhat soiled, overall in fine condition.
