Rodgers (1902-1979) collaborated with lyricists Lorenz Hart and later
Oscar Hammerstein II to produce dozens of America's most beloved popular songs
and many of its most successful musicals. Collaborations with Hart produced
such standards as "With a Song in My Heart", "The Lady Is a Tramp", "My Funny
Valentine" and "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered". After Hart's death
(1943), Rodgers teamed up with Hammerstein to produce one Broadway hit after
another, including Oklahoma, South Pacific, The Sound of
Music and The King and I. Lightly soiled. Ink note on verso shows
through lightly in upper left corner. Otherwise, fine
