About This Item
New York: Grosset & Dunlap, 1938. A classic how-to book from one of the most famous ventriloquists of the twentieth century. Includes many pictures and diagrams, sample scripts taken from Charlie McCarthy's actual broadcasts, and detailed instructions for making wooden dummies, hand puppets and shadowgraphs. Gently bumped and rubbed with just a touch of wear at the edges, binding square and solid, text clean and unmarked. Jacket rubbed with chips, tears and creases, including 3/4" loss to the spine head that takes part of the title. Price clipped, looking better than it sounds in new Brodart.. Hard Cover. Very Good/Fair. Illus. by Nisenson, Samuel.
