"I'm Just a Vagabond Lover," written by Rudy Vallee and Leon Zimmerman and published by Leo. Feist, Inc., New York, 1929. The front cover has a background of blue with the title at the top, an image of Vallee over an orange background at center and the composers' names at the bottom right. The phrase "Introduced / and Featured / by / RUDY VALLEE," is at the lower right. The publisher's information is in a white panel at the lower right corner. The transcription of the allegro moderato tempo tune also has a tuning key for a ukulele at the bottom right of the first page by May Singhi Breen. At the bottom of page four is an advertisement for a folio of popular songs from the publisher, while a similar ad on page five notes that sheets for orchestra and band, at fifty cents, and male quartet for twenty five cents, and records and piano rolls were available. Sample transcriptions for two songs and cover art for one of them are on the inside front and back covers. A music store stamp and owner's name are at the bottom right and upper left, respectively, of the front. With partial spine separation, light creases, minor soiling, some browning, light stains, and a few small tears, the condition is fair.Lexicon
