Description

"Bring Back the Daisies" by Harley Russo, published by the McClure Publishing Company, Los Angeles, 1927. The front cover has an image of a woman carrying baskets of daisies on a device on her shoulders. She also has a bunch in her left hand and stands in front of a brick structure near open fields. The score in a valse or waltz tempo. The song was first published in Ohio in 1920 and transferred to McClure in St. Paul, Minnesota the following year and then to the firm in Los Angeles in 1927. A sample score for a "novelty rag" called "Chimes" is at the back and an ad on the back cover for more Russo-penned songs offered by McClure. With a few stains, soiling and rubbing, the overall condition is good.
