[light shelfwear only, spine very slightly turned; the jacket is quite presentable, despite a deep but very slim vertical tear near the top right corner of the front panel, a few small scratch marks just adjacent to it, and a couple of tiny edge-nicks]. (B&W photographs on endpapers) The subtitle (on the jacket front) says it all: "or, some misadventures, both comic and melancholy, of John Barrymore, W.C. Fields, and John Decker, while helping the Author attempt to write the biography of Sadakichi Hartmann, poet, self-proclaimed genius, artful rogue, and moocher sans pariel." The jacket drawing features caricatures of the four gentlemen mentioned above, plus Fowler himself lurking in the background. Heiskell, "!00 Books on Hollywood & the Movies," 36.
