King published his first book of jokes in 1962, and continued appearing in various clubs and hotels. He appeared on Broadway in the late 1960s, then moved on to films in the 1980s and 1990s, including Author! Author! (1982), Enemies: A Love Story (1989), Bonfire of the Vanities (1990) and Casino (1995). Lightly creased. File and staple holes at top blank margin. Pencil notes (unknown hand) on rider and contract.
