Laughing Stock by Bennett Nerf Hardcover Book (1945)

Laughing Stock by Bennett Cerf is a collection of over 600 jokes and anecdotes, many with an “uncertain vintage.” As an editor, Cerf compiled a diverse range of humor, focusing on classic jokes, witty remarks, and amusing stories that were widely appreciated in the mid-20th century. Though some jokes may feel dated, the collection offers a glimpse into the humor and societal norms of the time. Cerf’s playful style and lighthearted commentary make this a memorable read for those interested in vintage humor.
