Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good-. Revised Edition. Dustjacket has a couple of tiny closed tears on edge of front panel and a small chip to the lower edge of front panel - see image. ; Both book and dustjacket are in Very Good condition. "offers scores of anecdotes, a sparkling you-are-there description of the brassy minstrel parade from the railroad station to the local hotel, the script for a complete minstrel show, and the most durable jokes in the history of show business. Originally written in 1928, this revised edition has been updated to include Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney, Scott Joplin, and even Broadway's Ben Vereen. "[goodreads] NOTE: "Blackface minstrelsy is a troublesome topic in popular culture studies. Because burn-cork comedy originated and thrived in a racist society, many scholars and most nonscholars believe that minstrelsy's primary purpose was the creation and perpetuation of demeaning caricatures or untruthful portraits of African-Americans. Most studies published since the early 1960s emphasize the negative effects of blackface comedy or focus on the development of the principal stereotypes (the urban dandy and the shiftless plantation hand) rather than on the interpretive significance of blackface comedy within the broader context of American ethnic humor. While it is essential that minstrelsy's negative characteristics be explored and explained as overt manifestations of the racist attitudes many Americans shared, the narrow focus on race and/or racism as the primary feature of blackface entertainment limits the application of the interdisciplinary methods and interpretive strategies needed to understand the content and context of one of the most popular forms of American comedy."

Softcover. Condition: Good. Stated, "Newly Revised" edition. Quarto. 48pp. Stapled wrappers. Illustrated in black and white from drawings and photographs. A few pages with ink notation, the wrappers detached but present, rubbing and soiling to the wrappers, and a crease to the top corner of the front wrapper, a complete but good only copy. The music is primarily for voice and piano, some chord diagrams for ukulele. The title page prints the copyright date as 1936, and this will be reflected in the descriptions of most of the copies you see for sale, but underneath the last piece of music, "When the Saints Go Marching In" arranged by George Snowhill, the copyright is 1956, and this is the latest copyright date in the book. Features 18 songs including, "A Hot Time in the Old Town," "Roll Them Roly Boly Eyes," "Oh! Susanna," and "Ida: Sweet as Apple Cider.".

First Edition
Softcover. Condition: Very Good. First Edition; First Printing. Stapled, red, pictorial wraps with black and red titles and image of stereotyped blackface minstrel. This book has light, general wear with some wear near staples and two bits of writing in pencil on white hat brim. Minstrelsy began around the time of the Civil War and persisted into the 1960's and 1970's. Though racially charged in its conception, minstrel shows were performed by both black and white entertainers and they probably preserved many songs that were African-American in origin. This book is a complete minstrel show with both a script and musical numbers. There are some rather poorly reproduced photos on pp. 5 and 7 of famous minstrel performers including the great, African-American singer and comedian, Bert Williams. ; B&W Illustrations and Musical Notation; 4to 11" - 13" tall; 47 pages.
