A tight, attractive later printing of this (to cite jacket front flap) collection of "scandalous, salacious, and heartwarming stories" by the influential, long-time syndicated gossip columnist (1907-87) whose "It Happened Last Night" ran for an astonishing forty years (1943-83). Half-title page is signed large and bold in black marker, with his usual balloon-like "l" in "Earl" containing a crazed smiley face.
