Hamm's Beer Jingle: "Totem Tom Tom"
By John Farrell

Hal Davis identified Hamm's beer jingle as "Totem Tom Tom" and believed
that it came from some Broadway musical.  In fact the tune was composed
in 1924 by Rudolf Friml (music) and Otto Harbach/Oscar Hammerstein II
(words) and was introduced in the operetta "Rose Marie".
