HP Commercial: Maxine Sullivan?

There's a commercial for HP that runs on CNN with a version of "Blue Skies" from the 30s. It sounds to me like Maxine Sullivan. Has anybody else seen this commercial?

Pete, I had the same feeling.

I could also be Lee Wiley. I think I have her version somewhere. I'll have to check it out.
