Ellis, Vivian. How to Make Your Fortune on the Stock Exchange. First Edition. 1962. Illustrations by John Jensen. Book and dust jacket are both in good plus condition—both show foxing.
This book, published only in the United Kingdom, offers tips on playing the stock market from the perspective of a droll West End composer. He takes sound advice and then twists it into a variety of humorous permutations. Light yet multi-layered, it is the sort of book on finance that Oscar Wilde might have written. Declaring the stock market to be schizophrenic with wild escalations one moment and heart breaking drops the next, Ellis astutely observes “in either situation, the broker retains his commission.” Fun.
