Summary: Well organized and very useful reference book
Review: An excellent snapshot back to the times when jokes didn't have to be foul to be funny. Works well as a reference book due to it's format. I found it lots of fun. Would definitely use for my presentations.

Summary: Five Jokes Per Penny. Any Takers?
Review: At the rate of 5 jokes per penny how could this book not be a good deal? The jokes by now are very dated. It is really a history of what used to be funny. The problem is you have to search through so many old jokes to find one you might use. I have belatedly discovered that jokes books are not of much value in public speaking. Using other peoples old jokes could really ruin your image. May be this book is good for a humor historian. It may be useful in stimulating your own joke creation. All in all for some the book is worth the price, just be sure you can accept all the clutter before you buy it. The editorial reviews are deceptive--look out.

Summary: Don't waste your money-not humorous or useable
Review: Jokes were so Ridiculous I would be embarassed to use them with friends never mind in a speech. The idea behind the book is great-material is extremely lame.

Summary: Dated
Review: Material is very dated from the 1950s. Way out of touch with todays audience. Not much usable material.

Summary: The jokes on you!
Review: My wacky sister makes a point of giving totally useless birthday gifts to her best friends. Examples? Well over the years she's given Bernard one sock, last years calendar, a bra, size xxxxx over-large jockey y fronts, a used light bulb, a paper bag with eye holes, a Hebrew cookbook with accompaning Hebrew-English dictionary. You get the idea.Well this year, guess what he's getting! Yes! You're right! This book. It doesn't have a single funny joke!
