This article is an attempt to determine the function of discovered a small collection of 19 pieces of music, owned by Friedrich Wilhelm Jüncke (1842-1897) stored in the Library of the Stanisław Moniuszko Academy of Music in Gdańsk. In view of the little knowledge about the life of this merchant from Gdańsk, and then from Sopot, the discovery that, apart from numismatic items and so-called Gdansk door, he also collected musical items was a big surprise for the employees of the current Art Inkubator, an institution that, since 2019, has been taking care of e.g. Jüncke's villa and cherishes the memory of the former owner of the building. The musical and bibliological characteristics of the music prints showed that Jüncke collected them rather for collecting purposes than for utilitarian purposes. Provenance entries, which were found in two prints proving that Jüncke was not the first owner. In addition, the entries found in the next five prints may prove that after Jüncke's death some items were in the possession of the Gdańsk NSDAP, and after the war they ended up in the Academy of Music Library. Undoubtedly, finding this small book collection contributes to supplementing the information about Jüncke, and - indirectly - to expanding knowledge about the musical culture of Gdańsk in the period 1939-1945.
