Kevin,

You can check the Charles Anderson collection on the web.
The index to over 9000 tunes is at Tune Index 
<http://www.andersonfakebook.com/>

These include tune titles, composers, and dates.

Good luck,
Bruce Stangeland

I appreciate this can result in a massive response but
here goes anyway.

I am trying to identify as many OKOM tunes (especially
New Orleans stuff) that are in the public domain.  I
have been using the pre-1923 rule but can't always
identify for sure when a piece was written. 

Does anyone know of a list somewhere or has anybody
already started to put together a list of PD tunes?  I
am quite willing to compile it if people want to send
me what they know to be PD.
