More Old Jewish Comedians... A Blab! Storybook

Klappentext If there is one current artist who deserves more serious attention from the world! it is Drew Friedman... while Friedman might well want you to laugh at his interpretations! he probably wants you to cry simultaneously. -- John E. Mitchell Zusammenfassung This comprehensive collection of portraiture of Jewish comedians is a sequel to 2006's wildly successful Old Jewish Comedians ! which earned Friedman raves from Jerry Lewis! Howard Stern! The Believer ! Entertainment Weekly! and many more! and earned Friedman his own roast at New York's legendary Friar's Club. This all-new collection includes the famous (Woody Allen! Carl Reiner! Mel Brooks! Soupy Sales! etc.)! the not-so-famous (Jerry Stiller! Zeppo & Gummo Marx! Larry Storch! Zero Mostel! etc.) and the largely unknown (Molly Picon! Herbie Faye! Jan Milton! etc.). The Reuben Award-winning Friedman! one of the great caricaturists of his age! presents a thorough visual history of the 20th Century's greatest Borscht-Belt comedians through 28 full-page portraits; every crease! mustache hair! and liver spot looks utterly real. As Booklist put it! "If only we were all funny enough to get Friedman to draw us!"
