Artist: Holley Important Added Info: There are two different versions of this sheet music that was 100% identical in every way, EXCEPT that one has a darker blue cover and the other has a lighter blue cover. There is one other difference. At the bottom of page 5 of the light blue version, there is an ad for the first volume of "Rainbow Album of Popular Songs". In the same area on the darker blue version, the ad has been slightly changed so that it is now for books 1 and 2. Since the lighter blue version solely advertises book 1, and the darker blue version adds book 2 to it, it is clear that the darker blue version was printed after the lighter blue version, but we have no idea how big a time difference there is between the two. But if you care, the one with the lighter blue cover predates the one with the darker blue cover, and this auction is for the one with the light blue cover. We are also auctioning one with a dark blue cover in a separate auction. You might be surprised to know that there is more to the song than is played in the movie! What Dooley Wilson plays in the movie is the "refrain". There is an earlier section that talks about "this day and age we're living in gives cause for apprehension with speed and new invention and things like third dimension, yet we get a trifle weary with Mr. Einstein's theory", and there is more, but you will have to buy the sheet music to see it!
