Signed carte de visite
Photograph Mount signed: "Will S. Hays", 2½x4 overall, image 2½x3½
(two surfaces). William Shakespeare Hays (1837-1907) was given his middle
name as a nickname in his youth. He later added it legally. Hays published
three volumes of poetry, and wrote 350 songs, selling over 20 million copies to
become one of the most successful lyricists of the 19th century. His songs
were diverse, ranging from hymns to minstrel tunes. Hays claimed to
have written "Dixie," a credit usually assigned to Dan Emmett, and although
both songwriters had supporters, Hays was never able to document his claim.
Lightly worn at corners. Fine condition.
