Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

This comprehensive collection of portraiture of comedians born before 1930 includes the famous (Milton Berle, Groucho Marx, Jerry Lewis, Mel Brooks, Jack Benny), the not-so-famous (Benny Rubin, Shelly Berman) and the largely unknown (Al Kelly, Menasha Skulnik). The Reuben Award-winning Friedman presents a thorough visual history of these greatest Borscht-Belt comedians with 28 full-page portraits.

This is a Blab! Storybook, a series showcasing sequential artists from the acclaimed anthology Blab!. Each volume is presented in a beautiful 10" x 10" hardcover and full-color format.

Synopsis:

An illustrated celebration of the greatest Jewish comedians of the 20th century.
