Hardcover. First edition. First printing [stated]. Sewn binding. Cloth over boards. ix, [1], 214 p. Small format From Wikipedia: "George Burns (January 20, 1896 March 9, 1996), born Nathan Birnbaum, was an American comedian, award-winning actor and best-selling writer. He was one of the few entertainers whose career successfully spanned vaudeville, film, radio, and television. His arched eyebrow and cigar-smoke punctuation became familiar trademarks for over three-quarters of a century. When Burns was 79, his career was resurrected as an amiable, beloved and unusually active old comedian in the 1975 film The Sunshine Boys, for which he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor. He continued to work until shortly before his death, in 1996, at the age of 100.When Burns turned 90 in 1986, the city of Los Angeles renamed the northern end of Hamel Road "George Burns Road." City regulations prohibited naming a city street after a living person, but an exception was made for Burns. In celebration of Burns' 99th birthday in January 1995, Los Angeles renamed the eastern end of Alden Drive "Gracie Allen Drive." Burns was present at the unveiling ceremony (one of his last public appearances) where he quipped, "It's good to be here at the corner of Burns & Allen. At my age, it's good to be anywhere! " George Burns Road and Gracie Allen Drive cross just a few blocks west of the Beverly Center mall in the heart of the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Burns suffered a head injury after falling in his bathtub in July 1994 and underwent surgery to remove fluid in his skull. Burns never fully recovered and all performances celebrating his 100th birthday were canceled. In December 1995, when he was 99, Burns was well enough to attend a Christmas party hosted by Frank Sinatra, where he reportedly caught the flu, which weakened him further. On January 20, 1996, he celebrated his 100th birthday, but was too weak to perform or even attend a birthday party taking place that night and instead spent the evening at home. He released a statement joking how he would love for his 100th birthday to be "a night with Sharon Stone". On March 9, 1996, 49 days after his centenary, Burns died in his Beverly Hills home of cardiac arrest. His funeral was held three days later at the Wee Kirk o' the Heather church in Forest Lawn Memorial Park Cemetery, Glendale. As much as he looked forward to reaching the age of 100, Burns also stated, about a year before he died, that he also looked forward to death, saying that on the day he would die, he would be with Gracie again in heaven. Upon being interred with Gracie, the crypt's marker was changed to, "Gracie Allen & George Burns Together Again." George had said that he wanted Gracie to have top billing. George Burns has three stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, for TV (South side of the 6500 block of Hollywood Boulevard), for Live Performance (South side of the 6600 block of Hollywood Boulevard) and for Film (West side of the 1600 block of Vine Street). Burns is also a member of the Television Hall of Fame, where he and Gracie Allen were both inducted in 1988. He is the subject of Rupert Holmes' one-actor play Say Goodnight Gracie. The Simpsons referenced Burns in the Season 5 episode titled "Rosebud". In the show, Burns is the younger brother of Montgomery Burns, who as a child leaves his family to live with a rich man. His father makes the comment, "Oh well. At least we still have his little brother George." The camera pans to a young George Burns, who sings a line in his style and then says, "Trust me, it'll be funny when I'm an old man." Very good in very good dust jacket. Price clipped.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. First Edition. First printing of first edition. This copy possibly once belonged to actress Elizabeth Taylor. No definitive proof can be offered, so it must be considered speculative, however a reasonably strong circumstantial case may be made. The book is inscribed, "To Liz -- My Very Best" and signed by George Burns. In addition, laid in is a note (on her letterhead) from Carol Channing, with the note reading, "Darlin' Liz, We love this book as much as yours, so George autographed one just for you". It is signed by Carol and her husband, Charles Lowe. Carol Channing and Elizabeth Taylor were certainly acquainted. Photos can be found on-line of them hobnobbing together backstage following a couple of Channing's performances. In addition, the book Ms. Channing mentions may well be Taylor's "Elizabeth Takes Off", which was published in 1987, one year prior to the Burns book.
