Interior clean and unmarked, with faint staining along the inside fold. A movie tie-in edition for Warner Bros.' The Eddie Cantor Story (Technicolor, 1953), the screen biography of Eddie Cantor starring Keefe Brasselle, with Marilyn Erskine and Aline MacMahon. Cover reproduces a film production number showing Cantor (Brasselle) performing before a chorus line and a flag-draped backdrop. "Ma! (He's Making Eyes at Me)," a Cantor signature tune written in 1921 by Sidney Clare and Con Conrad, was among the standards Cantor himself sang on the film soundtrack.
