Uncommon sheet memorializing the victims of the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire. Lyrics are printed in Hebrew and transliterated Yiddish; only the title is supplied in English (and the title is spelled differently on cover and first page). The cover illustration is a full-length portrait of composer Joseph Rumshisky, with inset halftone portraits of the lyricist, Anshel Schorr, and performer Hyman J. Ginsburg. Heskes notes that the composition "appears to be a song whose lyrics were quickly augmented to reflect a tragic event." OCLC gives one location (Harvard); Marwick Roster No. 13359; HESKES 390.
