The cover shows a spirited horse-drawn buggy scene with stylized city background, signed in facsimile by cover artist WRC. The publication inclu…des notation for voice and piano, as well as tuning guidance for ukulele (G-C-E-A). The sheet music is in Very Good condition.

The cover shows minor edge wear, typical of vintage pieces, and retains a strong visual impact. This is a complete and collectible example of 1920s American popular music publishing. Jules Buffano (1896-1972) was an American songwriter, composer, and entertainer associated with West Coast popular music publishing during the Tin Pan Alley era. Active primarily in the 1910s-1930s, he composed novelty and sentimental songs that reflected the lively dance and vaudeville culture of the Jazz Age. His works were frequently issued by regional publishers such as Villa Morét of San Francisco, helping document the vibrant popular music scene outside New York's traditional Tin Pan Alley centers. Though less widely remembered today than some contemporaries, Buffano's sheet music remains collectible for its spirited melodies, period typography, and charming illustrated covers that capture the optimism and humor of 1920s American popular entertainment. Villa Morét, Inc. was a San Francisco music publisher active during the 1910s-1930s, specializing in popular songs, dance tunes, and regional Tin Pan Alley-style sheet music. Unlike the major New York firms such as Jerome H. Remick or Leo Feist, Villa Morét represented the flourishing West Coast music trade, issuing songs tied to vaudeville, dance orchestras, novelty numbers, and sentimental ballads for home piano performance. Their publications are often distinguished by colorful illustrated covers, decorative typography, and references to ukulele or popular dance arrangements that reflected changing musical tastes of the Jazz Age. Today, Villa Morét sheet music is collected both for its musical content and for its striking graphic design, especially examples with illustrated covers or regional California imprint interest. Because the company operated outside the dominant New York publishing market, surviving Villa Morét editions can be somewhat scarcer than comparable East Coast Tin Pan Alley publications.
