More than 1,500 illustrations of sheet music covers on Hawaiian music from the Tin Pan Alley era, as well as some on the South Pacific in general, make this book the ultimate work on the subject. The cover design of the Hawaiian sheet music in the period of the so-called Territorial Years of the Hawaiian Islands from 1900 to 1959 shows an extremely wide variety of graphic solutions for the representation of the classic South Seas clichés. Similar, sometimes even seemingly the same, each cover is nevertheless unique and shows the variety of artistic approaches to illustrating stereotypical images of the Hawaiian Islands and the South Seas.
