it started in the early 1900's when a fictitious lady called Miss Belinda Blurb was shown 'in the act of Blurbing'. In order to promote a book, the publishers printed a resume on the dust jacket and Miss Belinda Blurb was used to voice the words of the resume. After a while, Miss Blurb was 'dropped' and just the resume remained, as it does to this day.
The word "blurb" is not an abbreviation, or short form, of another word. It was first used in 1914 by G. Burgess to mean "A flamboyant advertisement; an inspired testimonial." Though "blurb" is an American slang term, it does not come from a longer word.
