The 1920s was a boom time for local songwriters. In South Australia the most prolific was Jack Fewster who wrote in association with Tom King. From 1922 until 1940 they wrote over 200 songs and a number of musicals including Footnotes, Dutini and Juanita. This piece was included on the tour of the Cheer-up Society's Concert Party.
