I'm delighted to see this stub for the Edison. Until the European tourist agencies discovered it as the century turned, it was an ancient, decrepit Broadway hotel in the heart of the theater district where the theater folk themselves stayed, so legendary that Neil Simon wrote a play about it. There's a lot of press out there about it to be quoted. If they knew you, they would give you a room for $25. Voice-over actors stayed here, bit players, and so many magicians that the restaurant had tacked an Ace of Spades to the ceiling, to aid them in a certain card trick. Its deli restaurant served matzoh ball soup and Jackie Mason, a regular, called it "the Polish Tea Room," in joking contrast to the ritzy Russian Tea room. There was a bronze plaque on the wall celebrating bell boys like Bobby, who had worked there for 25 years. Finally the old Jewish family who owned it retired. Neil Simon’s play failed. The card on the restaurant’s ceiling was taken down. All this is in print. No time tonight, or I'd start myself.Profhum (talk) 10:39, 13 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
