This sheet music is for the song “I'm Glad I Can Make You Cry.” The song was written and composed by Charles R. McCarron and Carey Morgan and the sheet music was published by Jos. W. Stern and Company of New York, New York in 1918. The blue cover features a central photograph of Alice Joyce and Evart Overton, two stars of the movie studio Vitagraph Company of America. There is a circular image of Gus Hill in the lower left that reads “introduced in Gus Hill’s Minstrels.” On the right is a circular inset image of lyric tenor Fred Freddy, who sang the song in vaudeville shows.
