Misc. Notes Score has no plate no. and is ambiguous about opus no. WorldCat estimates publication date as 1920, which is too early. Cover artwork is probably by Myrrha Bantock (1906–1992)(?). Paxton published its own arrangement for solo piano by Edric Cundell in 1926 (see: Catalog of Copyright Entries, 1926).
