@nancyfloressantos Irving Berlin was indeed the composer. In one of my songooks, it shows a copyright date of 1919 & says it was originally from the 1919 stage production of Ziegfeld Follies. I sure love this Artie Shaw version of it.
I have this song on an Artie Shaw cd. It is dated June 11, 1936, New york city. Very nice. Also, for a vocal version, try Mario Lanza. I know you'll enjoy that one too.
So great. Thanks.

This is one of Dita Von Teese's favorite tunes to strip to!

Alot of strippers from the past used "A Pretty Girl" also "Miss Alice Blue Gown".
