Reprint of the 1942 anthology Comic Relief features a host of pieces from the Algonquin Round Table wits -- Robert Benchley, Steven Leacock, James Thurber, Ogden Nash, Ring Lardner, Dorothy Parker, etc . Unclipped dust jacket shows its age with rubbing, tanning, and patches of chipping that include five 1/4 inch closed tears to crown.
