This is a good quality, rare self published rag. The composer was of Cuban descent and lived in Memphis, Missouri, having moved there from new Orleans. He was the leader of a local orchestra. Lopez later moved back to new Orleans and died there in 1940..I found this lurking in my files and I can't remember if I've previously posted it so here it is again, just in case. I was unable to find a title page...Steve.
