Vintage Belle of the Yukon Sheet Music, 1944, Matted Wall Art

This is a 14 x 18 inch professionally done, custom double-matted “Sleighride in July,” sheet music from the International Pictures, Inc. movie, “BELLE of the YUKON,” copyright 1944. The front cover features wonderful graphics of a dancer kicking up her legs. Very fun! The film stars western movie staple Randy Scott, burlesque star Gypsy Rose Lee, Bob Burns, and radio star Dinah Shore. The setting is the late 19th century Canadian Gold Rush. The colors are shades of pink, antique creamy white, and black. Words by Johnny Burke, Music by Jimmy Van Heusen. The back cover lists other songs available from the music publisher from the movie (see photos). This is original, authentic, sheet music; not a reprint or reproduction. This matted sheet music will arrive to you ready to place into your standard-sized, 14 x 18 inch frame. The photos I’ve taken show how your print looks in the double mat, as it will reach you, and an example of how your matted print will look framed. This matted sheet music is in a hinged mat, backed by foam board, and is sitting in archival polyester picture corners. The music is set up to display as wall art, but it can be removed and played as well. The sheet music is entire and complete. The print is matted with quality, USA made mat board. It is attached with archival polypropylene mounting corners to quality foam board. The mat is hinged with linen hinging tape. Great for home decor, office, music room, or home theater room! • Mat dimensions: Width, 14 inches x Height, 18 inches • Sheet music dimensions: Width, 9 inches x Height, 12 inches • Mat color: Ivory white (outer), and Black (inner) This is an ORIGINAL vintage piece of sheet music, not a reprint or reproduction Since it is now over 80 years-old it is not in mint condition, and I will note here observations I see. This copy is in good vintage condition; the cover colors remain bright and lovely. There is a stain on the front cover on the left corner side underneath the scroll with the names of the songs. The inside front cover has an ink bleed of the song title that is visible (this must have been there from the time it was printed). All the pages of music are still attached. The contents are completely usable. There are slight crinkles and signs of usage on the front and back covers. The edges of the pages have some discoloration. The insides pages show slight yellowing on the edges of the pages, and also have a patina of age to them. Fortunately most of the wear is located on the edges of the page and inside, and therefore can easily go unseen and hidden away behind the border of the framing mat. Please view the photos I have posted, as they will give you the best idea of how it looks. I have taken additional close-up photos of the cover and sheet music, and can share them with you upon request. By owning this original sheet music you will own a piece of this classic Old Hollywood movie! • Title: “Sleighride in July” • Words by Johnny Burke, Music by Jimmy Van Heusen. • Condition: Good • Quantity available: 1 • Edition: First Edition • Binding: Paperback • Publisher: Burke and Van Heusen, Inc., New York, N.Y., 3-page piece of sheet music More photos of this matted sheet music are available and can be shared upon request.
