"Dirty work in the Fourth Dimension was the cause of all the trouble. Somebody slipped up badly, the wires became crossed and an 'identity-switch' resulted. Briefly the facts were these. B.K. Burwash and I.J. Zizzbaum, fang-wrenching rivals of high repute, simultaneously performed their miracles of dental surgery on Joey Cooley, Hollywood's famous child star, and Reginald, third Earl of Havershot. And it was during the brief space of time that the gas administered by Messrs. Burwash and Zizzbaum was doing its stuff and the patients' liberated souls were hob-nobbing in the Fourth Dimension, that the dirty work took place. Reginald returned to consciousness in the diminutive, if decorative, body of the child star, whilst the soul of young Cooley had been parked in the massive frame of the…

Garden City, NY: Doubleday, Doran and Company, Inc., 1936. [Comic novel] FIRST US EDITION. Octavo (20 x 14cm), pp.[vi]; 303; [3] blank. Publisher's orange cloth titled in black to spine, with black illustration to spine and upper board, top-edge dark orange. Pictorial dust jacket priced at $2.00. Toning to endpapers and edges, dustiness to top edge, neat ownership inscription to flyleaf. Cloth a little worn, spine ends pushed. Wrapper slightly soiled, rubbed to folds with some quite substantial chipping to edges. Very good. Set in Hollywood in the 1930s, Laughing Gas is a typically Wodehousian look at the film industry. The particular target is child film stars, with whom, by a bizarre mix-up triggered by inhaling nitrus oxide while in the dentist's chair, the protagonist is body-switched. Joey Cooley, Wodehouse's child-star, is forced to subsist on a diet of dried prunes, is effectively held under house arrest, and is kidnapped.
