Additional Details

A curious survival from a South American tour by Compars Herrmann. In 1885 he reached an agreement with his brother Alexander whereby Compars had exclusive performance rights in Europe, while Alexander had performance rights in the Americas. This broadside may date from Compars' last tour of the Americas, since he toured Europe in the early 1880s.
