The first number of "The Rag-Time Ephemeralist" is now, unfortunately, out of print. However, for purposes of amusement, selected excerpts from articles contained therein are available for electronic perusal here: a fragment of a Scott Joplin song, discovered in 1997 by Chicago pianist Reginald R. Robinson, and Joseph Lamb's minstrel show music, by Mr. Galen Wilkes.

Although there are no plans currently for this issue's republication, please feel free to contact us if you would like to be placed on a list pending notification of reissue; if interest seems great enough, we will consider such a venture, and will even attempt to correct the many typographical errors and annoying printing gaffs which seemed to define this maiden number.
