All of the music is written for solo piano. Almost all sheets have cover illustrations featuring an automobile; many covers show women driving autos. Automobile racing and racetracks is a popular theme for many covers of the 1900s-1910s. Most of the compositions are marches, two-steps or ragtime music.
