Song/Music: "The Black Diamond March"

Various sources mention the Black Diamond march, composed by a member of LV's Sayre Shop band to honnor LV's Black Diamond. Even one source provided the melody and lyrics. But does any one know of a recording of this piece of music and whether it is still avaible preferingly on a CD?

Thanks in advance

Black Diamond Waltz

The Sayre Historical Society has a original sheet music of that waltz so it does exist. Unfortunately its not available and is in storage due to the pending renovations on the building.

So at the moment it is juist a piece which exists on paper only. Did it survive as a completed score for a band or just the melody and lyrics and is there any indication if and when it becomes available again?
