A scarce early Tin Pan Alley piece, featured in Gus Edwards’ Annual Song Revue, with words by Billy Rose and music by Gus Edwards — two giants of the era. This 1924 edition is published by Irving Berlin, Inc., adding an additional layer of collectability.
The cover art is outstanding:
• A man in an armchair reminiscing as nostalgic scenes drift from his pipe
• A photo inset of performers Hazel Johnson and Doris Walker, a pairing rarely seen
• Printed note: “As Featured in Gus Edwards’ Annual Song Revue”
This combination of Gus Edwards + Billy Rose + Irving Berlin Publishing + Revue tie-in makes this sheet music exceptionally desirable among early Broadway and Tin Pan Alley collectors.

Condition
Very Good vintage condition — some edge wear, light surface toning, small pencil “1924” notation on cover. Interior pages clean and fully legible. Spine intact. No tears affecting music. A very hard-to-find example for its age.
