Price: The price of this sheet music was 4 shillings, which is equivalent to 20 new pence.

The price was increased from '2/6' in 1963 to '3/-' in late 1964. This was followed by the '20p 4/-' dual pricing during the 1971 decimalization, eventually leading to the '25p' revision sticker during the mid-70s inflation crisis. In the following years of 1976-1977, the price likely rose to 30p due to the impact of further inflation.

Period (Approx.) Price Marking Economic Context / Background

Late 1964 – 1969 3/- Stable Era: A slight increase as the music industry matured.
1970 – 1971 20p 4/- Decimalization Transition: Dual pricing used during the currency change.
