Description: "Sigmund "Ziggy" Blissman isn't the best-looking, sanest boy in the world. Far, far from it. But this misfit child of a failed husband-and-wife vaudeville team has one (and only one) thing going for him: He can crack people up merely by batting his eyelashes." "And Vittorio "Vic" Fontana, the son of a fisherman, is a fraud. Barely able to carry a tune or even stay awake while attempting to, the indolent baritone (if that's what he is) has one thing doing for him: Women love to look at him.".

"On their own, they're failures. But on one summer night in the Catskills, they step onstage and together become the funniest men - and the hottest act - in America."--BOOK JACKET.
