Abstract.Let $X$ be a reduced projective curve such that each point of $X$ lying on at least two irreducible components of $X$ is an ordinary node of $X$. Here we describe all spanned torsion free sheaves on $X$ with pure rank $1$ and degree $1$ or $2$. The list depends on combinatorial properties of $X$ (e.g. the existence of a disconnecting node of $X$).
