pp: 250. Bound in pictorial dust jacket, over black pebbled boards, with the title and name of the editor stamped in gilt on the spine. The book is a history of comedy shows on American radio roughly from the 1930s to the 1950s. The format is as follows; a comedic radio actor is highlighted with photographs, title and date, details of the radio show, and some dialogue that was selected for its comedic value. The actors who were selected include, but are not limited to, Ed Wynn, George Burns and Gracie Allen, W.C. Fields, Bud Abbott and Lou Costello, Eddie Cantor, and Bob Hope. This is a near fine copy in a very good dust jacket with some sunning on the spine, and edge wear. The original $14.95 price is on the front flap. A hardcover copy in any condition is uncommon.
