William Strange (1801-1871) and James Bingley started publishing The Musical Bouquet  from the office in 192 High Holborn in January 1845, with their illustrator Alfred Ashley (1820-1897) and their editor Francis Lancelott, probably inspired by G.H. Davidson's similar publication The Musical Treasury launched in 1844. Bingley had previously collaborated with Ashley in 1843-1844 to publish the two-volume Bingley's  Select Vocalist, an eclectic collection of songs, glees and duets engraved by Bingley from drawings by Ashley. In the hands of Strange and Davidson  the pieces published by The Musical Bouquet were largely pirated from other publishers. Strange sold his publishing business to his son William Strange Junior on 18th February 1849, but after that date Charles Sheard Senior is associated with The Musical Bouquet. He soon became its  proprietor, increased its production to two pieces a week, and by its height of popularity in the 1860s, to eight copies a week. On his death in 1873  his son Charles Sheard Junior took control of the firm as senior partner and The Musical Bouquet  continued until  1898, after which Charles Sheard  Junior continued publishing music sheets from 192 High Holborn.","physicalDescription":"Music sheet for <i>The Ivy Green</i> with a half-page illustration of a ruined chapel seen through a clearing in a wood, with ivy and trees.","artistMakerPerson":[{"name":{"text":"Russell, Henry","id":"N6595"},"association":{"text":"composers","id":"AAT25671"},"note":""},{"name":{"text":"Dickens, Charles","id":"N2443"},"association":{"text":"author","id":"AAT25492"},"note":""}],"artistMakerOrganisations":[{"name":{"text":"Musical Bouquet Office","id":"AUTH327624"},"association":{"text":"publishers","id":"AAT25574"},"note":""}],"artistMakerPeople":[],"materials":[{"text":"paper","id":"x30308"},{"text":"ink","id":"AAT15012"}],"techniques":[{"text":"printing","id":"AAT53319"},{"text":"lithography","id":"AAT53271"}],"materialsAndTechniques":"Lithograph, intermediate pages composed of printed text ","categories":[{"text":"Entertainment & Leisure","id":"THES48959"},{"text":"Prints","id":"THES48903"}],"styles":[],"collectionCode":{"text":"T&P","id":"THES48602"},"images":["2014HC6295"],"imageResolution":"high","galleryLocations":[{"current":{"text":"005","id":"THES356697"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""},{"current":{"text":"005","id":"THES356697"},"free":"","case":"","shelf":"","box":""}],"partTypes":[[{"text":"sheet music","id":"AAT26430"}],[{"text":"prints","id":"AAT41273"}],[{"text":"sheet music","id":"AAT26430"}],[{"text":"prints","id":"AAT41273"}]],"contentWarnings":[{"apprise":"","note":""}],"placesOfOrigin":[{"place":{"text":"London","id":"x28980"},"association":{"text":"published","id":"x30682"},"note":""}],"productionDates":[{"date":{"text":"1845","earliest":"1845-01-01","latest":"1845-12-31"},"association":{"text":"published","id":"x30682"},"note":"Published as number 9 in the Musical Bouquet"}],"associatedObjects":[],"creditLine":"Gabrielle Enthoven Collection","dimensions":[{"dimension":"Height","value":"34.5","unit":"cm","qualifier":"approx","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"front cover","note":""},{"dimension":"Width","value":"24.5","unit":"cm","qualifier":"approx","date":{"text":"","earliest":null,"latest":null},"part":"front cover","note":""}],"dimensionsNote":"","marksAndInscriptions":[],"objectHistory":"","historicalContext":"","briefDescription":"Music sheet for <i>The Ivy Green</i> composed by Henry Russell, set to words by Charles Dickens, published by the Musical Bouquet, 1845","bibliographicReferences":[],"production":"","productionType":{"text":"","id":""},"contentDescription":"","contentPlaces":[],"associatedPlaces":[],"contentPerson":[],"associatedPerson":[],"contentOrganisations":[],"associatedOrganisations":[],"contentPeople":[],"associatedPeople":[{"text":"","id":""}],"contentEvents":[],"associatedEvents":[],"contentOthers":[],"contentConcepts":[],"contentLiteraryRefs":[],"galleryLabels":[],"partNumbers":["S.1000:1-2014","S.1000:2-2014"],"accessionNumberNum":"1000","accessionNumberPrefix":"S","accessionYear":2014,"otherNumbers":[],"copyNumber":"","aspects":["WHOLE"],"assets":[],"recordModificationDate":"2025-04-16","recordCreationDate":"2014-04-30","availableToBook":true}}
