London: Hopwood & Crew, 1905.
Price: $50.00
Softcover. Sheet music. Folio. Two nested bifolia with a single-sheet-insert making ten pages. Outer bifolium separated along the fold but both leaves are present, inner bifolium mostly separated along the fold, name stamp on the front cover, bumping to the corners, and rubbing to the front cover, a good only copy. For voice and piano. Plate imprint, "H & C Ltd. 4274." There is a variant printing of this song from the same publisher in the same year that excludes the third verse that is featured here. The rubber name stamp is that of actor and theater manager Frank Curzon, with a notice printed on the front cover that reads, "Application for right of performing the above Musical Comedy, must be made to Mr. Frank Curzon, Prince of Wale's Theatre, London." *OCLC* locates six holdings and it appears to be equally uncommon in the trade.
