p_purcellg.jpgAll that can presently (June 2022) be gleaned about Gertie Purcell from sheet music covers and by Internet searching is that she was presumably an American actress/singer who has been featured on 4 works published between 1912 and 1913.
Her portrait on the left is taken from In the Heart of the City That Has No Heart (1913) music by Joseph M. Daly, words by Thomas S. Allen and published by Jos. M. Daly Music Co., Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Surfers are welcome to contribute any further information about this performer.
