Hello monstamamma & welcome to the chordie forum!
Here is a site with a treasure trove of old blues, ragtime, jazz, minstrel, gospel, and show music from the late 1800's through the 1930's. The Templeton Collection contains thousands of pieces of sheet music (plus recordings, instruments, record players, & memorabilia).
This vast collection of sheet music is steadily being digitized and you can view the full scores. You can also search the collection by genre, date, composer, publisher, etc. This is a wonderful resource for tunes that may seem obscure now, but were quite popular in their day.

Give it a look-see, hope you can find the type of stuff you like. James
