Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. 2nd printing. (no dust jacket) [light shelfwear, slight fading to boards at top and bottom edges, one-time owner's name and address in green ink on ffep (color-compatible with the binding and boards)]. "The diary of young Martin Jones, society man, sportsman and soak. It is, we venture to asseverate, unlike any other diary you may have read! Certainly it is the most hilariously funny volume that has been launched upon an unsuspecting public these many moons. The mad chronicle of Martin's adventures in Manhattan and on Long Island -- not to mention the Pickwick Arms at Greenwich -- is sauce for the most jaded palate." (Quoted from the dust jacket on another copy -- previously sold, alas, sorry.) The first book by the author of "My Man Godfrey" and other screwball fare.
