Description:
New York: Grosset & Dunlap, 1929. Photoplay edition issued to coincide with the release of the film starring Al Jolson, Betty Compson and child star David Lee.

The Singing Fool, like its predecessor, is part silent film and part talkie. The film introduces the song “Sonny Boy”. Very good in dust jacket with a few small nicks and tears. The front panel is a portrait of Jolson being hugged by the boy David Lee. Striking cover.
