This is a 1910s piece, of course. The military style of the '10s.
In my channel I have some recreations of the 1910s One Step dance that are very authentic, as well as some great pieces of the era.

This would have been considered pretty quaint by the 1920's. This is a great example of popular band music from around the later part of the first decade of the 20th century.

Irving Berlin's "Everybody's Doing It" from around 1912 was written about the turkey trot craze. By the late teens jass (later spelled jazz) and blues had replaced ragtime in popularity.

That doesn't sound like 1912 to me. Give it the 1920's but no more.

oops clips
Nope. In the 1920's this would have been a bit outdated already.

'Bay Window Bohemia' by Oscar Lewis claims the turkey trot dance originated late 1890's-early 1900's at Purcell's Pacific Street resort in San Francisco - music sounds typical of that period as well.
