Music adapted from the original operetta by Victor Herbert — the foundational American operetta composer whose works include Babes In Toyland (1903), Naughty Marietta, and Sweethearts; his operetta remains one of the most performed American stage works of the early 20th century.

New lyrics by Mel Leven — Disney lyricist whose credits include 101 Dalmatians (“Cruel De Vil”). Fifteen tracks across two sides including March Of The Toys (B7), Toyland (B4), and I Can’t Do The Sum (A7). Vinyl Near Mint; sleeve VG+ with top seam split disclosed.
