Sheet Music: I’D LOVE TO CALL YOU MY SWEETHEART
This is a piece of vintage sheet music for the song “I’D LOVE TO CALL YOU MY SWEETHEART.” The cover is printed on yellow paper with black ink, featuring a central illustration of a man and woman embracing in a lush, vine-covered setting with a tall, narrow window in the background. The title is prominently displayed at the top in large, stylized font that has a slightly decorative or Art Deco influence. Below the illustration are the names of the composers: PAUL ASH, JOE GOODWIN, and LARRY SHAY. A smaller black and white portrait photo is included in the lower left corner, featuring a man identified as MILTON CHARLES, “FAMOUS ORGANIST.” In the lower center, a publisher's mark is visible, reading “MILTON WEIL MUSIC CO., 38 W. RANDOLPH ST., CHICAGO.” The phrase “MADE IN U.S.A.” is printed directly below the portrait. The sheet music appears to be folded vertically and shows some wear along the edges and spine consistent with age and handling. There are creases and some minor tears along the perimeter. The overall condition suggests it has been used and stored over many years. The style of the illustration and typography points to an early 20th-century aesthetic, likely from the 1920s or 1930s. There are no other readily visible markings or indications of manufacturing details beyond the publisher and country of origin. The quality of printing seems standard for the era.
