Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good dj. Illustrated by (dj photo) Earl Theisen (illustrator). First Edition. [a nice clean book with minor shelfwear only; the jacket is moderately edgeworn, with a number of tiny nicks and small edge-tears, light scuffing/soiling]. INSCRIBED and SIGNED by the author on the front endpaper: "To Morris / Weisstein - / all good wishes / Sincerely, / Eddie Cantor / Dec- 20, / 1959." "One of America's best-loved comedians reveals the wise, witty, heart-warming philosophy behind his years of full, successful living." The book is touchingly dedicated to his daughter Marjorie, who had died of cancer in May 1959 (the book was published in December) at age 44. As one widely-syndicated critic of the day wrote: "If you find [the book] 'corny' -- well, it's just too bad for you. You were born too late." Signed by Author.

8vo. pp 204. Original publisher's peach cloth, lettered red at the spine and the front cover. Signed presentation from the author on the front endpaper to Maurice Chevalier (1888 1972) French actor, Cabaret singer and entertainer, 'To Maurice, wonderful, warm, great artist, food friend, with deep affection, Eddie Cantor - Oct. 28th '59.' Very good plus.
