"Who Wouldn't Be Blue?" sheet music, 1928. The cover has an image of a woman within a red circle against a blue background and stars trailing throughout the background. At the lower right corner is a photograph of Nick Lucas, a singer. The title is at the top and the songwriters' names and the publisher's name and logo is at the bottom left. Inside is the score and lyrics for the song with the tempo as "moderato" and providing a tuning scale for the ukulele. On the back and inside front are samples of two other popular songs published by the Waterson, Berlin, and Snyder Company, "Half Way to Heaven," and "Love Affairs," written by Al Dubin (lyrics) and J. Russel Robinson (music.) In fair condition, there is a missing corner at the lower left of the front cover, cover creases and surface soiling, light stains on the back and other small tears on the front and back.Lexicon
