Previous owner's name in ink to front free endpaper, very light wear to the spine ends, else very good plus; no dust jacket. This hilarious story of Merton Gill, who worked in a grocery store but dreamed of becoming a movie star, was a successful play, produced at the Cort Theatre, and later transformed into a Red Skelton vehicle for MGM.
