"Sing
to the colors that float in the light, Hurrah for the Scarlet and
Cream! Scarlet the hue of the roses so bright, And pale is the lily's
fair gleam. Scarlet the east at the breaking of dawn, and Scarlet the
west when the sun is gone. Hail! Hail to the colors that float in the
light, Hurrah for the Scarlet and Cream!"
Genuine vintage EXTRA LARGE sheet music and lyrics to this historic and stirring University of Nebraska song! Three verses; first shown above.
Taken directly from an old oversized book published in 1953 of college alma mater and pep songs, this is a beautiful, cream-colored page lightly tinged with the golden burnish that comes only with the passing years.
This original song sheet is over 70 years old, yet looks fabulous.
Song credits at top: "Chas. M. Gayley."
Date at bottom: "Copyright, 1936 by The Thornton W. Allen Company, New York, N.Y. Copyright assigned 1947 to Broadcast Music Inc."
This extra-large page is approx. 9" x 12" -- too big for my scanner, I had to take a photo! Just perfect for an 11x14" frame.
What an impressive piece of history for a Nebraska alum or Cornhuskers fan!
