benchwarrant17 30th Jul 2021		First hit chart October 24, 1942 for 1 week, then re-appeared on May 22, 1943. Hit no. 10 on August 7, finally no. 1 as already described. A slow buildup! Remember, 1942-43 was the Musicians strike, maybe without that Decca just drops it and moves on to new songs.



coveboy 11th Jul 2017		more information is required on this disc. i believe jscaptura scans are correct for sides a/b because i have the same disc. album scan are probably from a later date when paper dolls became the hit



jscaptura 9th Apr 2017		Added label variations with no album information and A/B sides reversed.



vocalion red 5th Jun 2016		added label shots, A/B
