“Sailor Beware”, words by Leo Robin and music by Richard A Whiting. Sic pages front to back with a 1935 copyright. Published by Harms Inc, New York. 9 in x 12 in (approximately). Cover art shows several photos from the film, Anything Goes’ and the words, “From the Paramount Picture ‘Anything Goes’” followed by credits. At left lower center is a listing of other songs from the production. “Anything Goes” is a 1936 American musical film directed by Lewis Milestone and starring Bing Crosby, Ethel Merman, Charles Ruggles and Ida Lupino. Based on the 1934 stage musical Anything Goes by Guy Bolton and P. G. Wodehouse, the stage version contains songs by Cole Porter. The film required revisions of Porter's saucy lyrics to pass Production Code censors and only four of his songs remained: "Anything Goes", "I Get a Kick Out of You", "There'll Always Be a Lady Fair", and "You're the Top". "You're the Top" contained substantially revised lyrics, and only the first line (sung by Ethel Merman during the opening credits) was retained from the song "Anything Goes". Crosby's influence was used to gut most of Porter's score and obtain four new songs from several new songwriters, Richard A. Whiting, Hoagy Carmichael, Leo Robin, Edward Heyman, and Friedrich Hollander. “Sailor Beware”, words by Leo Robin and music by Richard A Whiting. Sic pages front to back with a 1935 copyright.
