Walt Disney's Alice in Wonderland Sheet Music - 'I'm Late'

This is a vintage piece of sheet music for the song 'I'm Late' from Walt Disney’s 1951 animated feature 'Alice in Wonderland.' The cover features vibrant, multi-color lithographic artwork depicting Alice, the White Rabbit, the Cheshire Cat, and other whimsical characters from the film. The item is printed on standard medium-weight paper of the era, measuring approximately 9x12 inches. Notable markings include the credits for lyrics by Bob Hilliard and music by Sammy Fain, a listed price of 50 cents, and the Walt Disney Music Company publisher imprint. Notably, there is a handwritten owner signature or inscription in the upper left yellow banner area dated 'August 11, 1951,' which provides a contemporary provenance. The condition shows moderate age-related wear, including minor edge fraying, slight corner rounding, and light foxing or yellowing of the paper stock. Some creasing is visible near the spine and corners, typical for paper ephemera of this age. The high-quality mid-century graphic design and character accuracy indicate it is an authentic licensed product from the film's original release cycle.
