Clean internals. Inner hinges are sound and not split. 232 pp 8vo. This is a gay and very amusing survey of the "Golden Age of American Humor," centering chiefly in New York City in the 1920's and 30's but with a brief excursion west to Hollywood. There is a lot more a reviewer might say but space runs out. The chapter on "Taverns of the Twenties" runs the gamut of fun in prohibition, speakeasy days with a bonus of some of the best of Dorothy Parker's sharp quips. And in addition to photographs, there are reproductions of some of the best drawings of such masters as Gluyas Williams and Miguel Covarrubias. The book is interesting and informative and great fun all the way. For any one in middle life or older it will prove a blessed reminder of half-forgotten joys and laughs. And for the younger set I hope it may serve to illustrate the truth of the remark of Charles Dana Gibson in the preface to a volume of his drawings, "If I remember correctly we had a good time in those days too." A clean very presentable copy in a Brodart mylar jacket.
