I adore these orchestral stereotypes so much 😭 and Nova Community Arts is fantastic!! They have such a sweet staff and fabulous array of workshops- I thought I recognized their riso machine on your story, so it's lovely to see that it is in fact where you printed these! :-)
I found another one from Newell, from 1908, though the illustrations don't seem that old to me - he was ahead of his time...

Love that book! I just saw this one for the first time and wondered if you were aware of it - from 1910, no less!

This post brought me so much joy! The Philharmonic Gets Dressed was one of my absolute favorite picture books growing up!
