    "A Classy Rag". Another interesting and unique rag originating in Cincinnati. This one was published by W.H. Willis in 1910 in Cincinnati, Ohio. Of Edward A. Blake, Musescore's Erlingl has the following research:
    Edward A. Blake was born in Cincinnati, Ohio 1888. He is listed as pianist, musician and in 1917 organist at "Alhambra Theatre". At the opening of the theater 1914 it was "the finest and largest pipe organ ever placed in any theater in the middle West". He is also listed as “co-composer” of “That Funny Foxtrot Glide” together with Arthur Siebrecht (who has a “Sympathetic Rag” on UA-cam btw). Blake died “suddenly”(?!) in New York 1929.
    Many thanks to Musescore's JohnJ1995 for finding and suggesting this rare score. I have uploaded the copy of the original score at this link:

    This is a reproduction of the original score. I have added repeat bars to the B strain, the original has no repeat bars.
