People on Parade by Jerome Zerbe (Book)

About the Item

This is a very good copy of this scarce book with its original dust jacket. Published in 1934 the book is introduced by Lucius Beebe as "an intimate photographic review, of the debonair world of society, letters and the arts, with enlivening comment on colorful events and personalities". Among the eight hundred or so celebrities snapped informally while partying and having fun are the cream of American society and Hollywood stars. A very collectible book with a photographic record a bygone age before the second world war.
