La Bota
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating musical number performed by the talented Monica Lewis in the 1951 MGM film "The Strip Date." This vintage sheet music cover showcases the song's allure, with its bold red, white, and black design. The title "La Bota" is prominently displayed in elegant script, accompanied by the subtitle "Sung by Monica Lewis" and the song's credits below. The image on the cover features a sultry Monica Lewis, dressed in a stylish, form-fitting dress, gazing seductively into the distance. Her expressive eyes and pouty lips convey the passion and emotion of the lyrics. The background is adorned with intricate, geometric patterns, adding to the Latin American flair of the song. "La Bota" was written by Haven Gillespie II and Charles Wolcott, two accomplished songwriters of the 1950s. The lyrics, which are not shown on this cover, are believed to be in the Latin American tradition, adding to the exotic and alluring atmosphere of the song. The cover bears the publication information for London, indicating that this sheet music was distributed and printed in the United Kingdom. The price of this collectible sheet music is indicated as "6d," which is equivalent to six shillings or 30 pence in modern currency. The cover's condition is excellent, with minimal wear and tear, making it a valuable addition to any vintage music or film memorabilia collection. This cover is a testament to the enduring appeal of Monica Lewis and the timeless nature of the music she performed in the 1950s. "La Bota" remains a beloved classic, and this stunning sheet music cover is a beautiful reminder of its rich history.
