A 1950 guide to New York City by Daily Mirror newsmen Jack Lait and Lee Mortimer.

They lead you into swank night clubs and into squalid nests of vice and perversion. They take the lid off Broadway and Swing Lane. They tell the truth about glamour girls, show girls, party girls, models, and the White Way wolves. They sketch many after-dark characters who have made the city famous, or infamous. All Vintage Paperbacks come sealed in 2.5 mil plastic bag and taped closed with removable tape which will not tear the covers if it sticks to them when the book is removed.. 1st Prtg. Pictorial Wrappers. Near Fine. Vintage Paperback.
