The Giersdorf Sisters
Last updated: 12.09.24
p_giersdorfsis.jpg All that can presently (April 2024) be gleaned about The Giersdorf Sisters (Elvira, Irene and Rae) from sheet music covers and by Internet searching is that they were presumably American singers who have been featured on 11 works recorded and published between 1924 and 1934. They recorded on the Victor and Columbia labels.
Their portrait on the left is taken from He's Gone Away - That Man of Mine (1925) music by Victor E. Maul, words by A.C. Haberman and published by Maul-Haberman Music Pub., Lincoln, Nebraska, USA.
