Anyone who lived in the Catskill's understands the Jerry Lewis type of humor. Most of the old comedians started in the Catskill's and the hotels, Jerry was at the Brown's Hotel, there was also the Evans. Grossingers, The Concord,
and many many more. They had a sort of "corny humor" that was unique to the Catskill's. Joey Bishop, Jackie Mason, etc were some of the others that were Borsche Belt comedians. It was unique comedy to the Catskills and anyone from New York City in the 1940 to 1960's would remember this. There was Monticello, Liberty, Fallsburg, Hurleyville, Woodburne Lock Sheldrake, as some of the Towns and Villages where the Hotels were. A number of the comedians, bands entertainer's of those days started in the Catskills. I am sure a lot of people from New York remember this great period of the Catskills. Jerry Lewis was always associated with the Brown's Hotel.
