It was used for the winning skit at the University of Florida Homecoming in 1952 (pantomined by a frat). 50,000 students and alums went wild over it!

I did a pantomime of this record when I was in high school several times in 1956 and 57. Got lots of laughs too. I even did Spike Jones and several others. What a wonderful time I had in the 50âs.

Just wonderful. Never tought I'd actually see the man himself doing the skit. Made my day.
And not much seems to be known about him.
Thanks so much for the upload.

brilliant I remember this from my childhood in the 50s

My parents were with the Heidt show in the early 50's. I was a "trunk baby" traveling with the show. This is how I remember him doing in the show. I remember tearing up an old comic book imitating him. "Thank you kindly Conley" was Conley Graves the pianist with the show. Sometimes I would ride Conley in his MG going to different towns with the show. My mother left the show when I was 3 years old so I could have a somewhat normal childhood.

Wow. Listened to this routine my whole life and never saw him before today. Seeing him do this was a great gift. The disintegrating âBookâ was a great touch. I canât help but wonder if he was the inspiration for Eddie Lawrenceâs âThe Old Philosopherâ. Thank you so much for posting!

My parents had this record, and I listened to it over and over - had much of it memorized, decades ago. I still perform "Grandma's Lye Soap" from time to time.Â

My father started singing 'Grandma's LyeSoap' at random one day, so I decided to check and see if anybody might have uploaded it--I'm so glad someone did. I'll be showing this to my dad next time I see him:).

Brother Herman, and brother Sherman had an aversion to washing their ears. Grandma scrubbed them with the lye soap, and they haven't heard a word in years... Listened to this over and over as a kid, and 50 years later it shows up here.  Love this!

I brought a 78 of It's In The Book for my mum's birthday 15 years ago. I kept in a safe place ready to present it to my mum on the day of her birthday. When I come to remove from my LP collection. A stack of my LP's slipped forward and broke the 78 in 3 pieces. I wept. As my mum wanted another copy so bad as her copy was so badly worn to play. Where as the copy I bought was mint and never seen a needle. It did cost me a pretty packet. The cost did not bother me that much. It was the fact I felt so proud that I managed to find a mint copy and kept it for 5 months before my mum's birthday and on the day I broke it. I was never able to find another copy on 78 again. Sadly my mum is no longer with us.

Aah, so many memories of my dear mum and dad. That was the humour they had in their day and I was there to hear them laugh as I did too. Love it, thanks.

"We shall now sing what's left of the third verse...."
I loved my father's 7" vinyl of this. Not ever seen live Mr (Rev?) Standley before, ta. Look at my name, of course I acknowledge/praise my influences.
Diolch am bostio.

After all these years, I finally get to see him. I always pictured him as a larger, more rotund man, of the Gale Gordon sort.
