"For sheer mad hilarity, daring, and frankness, America has produced no more amazing writer than Thorne Smith. His books are a constant riot of adventure, with drinks, spooks, and sexes mixed generously, and stirred up in Rabelaisian potpourri. Mr. Topper, a commuter, and Marion, the gay young ghost, turn the workaday world upside down in this gay and ribald adventure that bursts all bounds of humor." Dust Jackt has foxing and discoloration, a 1/'4" chip at foot of the spine, a 1/2" tear to the rear near the head of the spine, and a 3/4" tear at the lower front fold. Boards have abrasion to the head of the spine and some bumping to corners. Endpapers are stained and text block has yellowed.
