New radial-velocity measures of high precision are used to demonstrate the spectroscopic binary nature of the 10.9-day Cepheid Z Lac. New photometric observations are presented and used to establish the correct phase relation of the new velocity measures to earlier radial-velocity observations of the Cepheid. The data now available are not sufficient to establish the orbital parameters of the Z Lac system, but there is evidence that the orbital period is several decades and possibly in excess of 100 years.
