In the early 1850s he merged with George D. Russell to form Russell & Tolman. One of the most significant music publishers in the United States during the 19th century Russell & Tolman published a great deal of popular music as well as works of noted American composers such as George F. Root. They also sold pianos. After the dissolution of Russell & Tolman in 1862 Tolman took over the catalogue and continued until 1870 as Henry Tolman & Co. He sold his sheet music plates to Root & Cady in 1868. From 1862 to 1868 he was the sole publisher of the Boston Musical Times and in 1865 was elected vice-president of the Board of Music Trade. Russell was joined by his brother Joseph M. Russell in 1863 to form G.D. Russell & Co. a similar publishing and dealing business which also undertook printing work."
