Notes
Small sheet music, cover is black and white, photo of Tennessee Walking Horse, Dark Glory, with rider Percy Moss. Back cover has explanation of song: "The original words were started as a family project on the long drive home from the 1954 National Walking Horse Celebration which White Star won." (This date suggested a 1950's publishing date. In addition, Internet search of Dark Glory found him showing in 1956 & 1957.)
