Ever have a day, when you wake up and decide to go to your favorite bookstore Kayo Books and find… many beautiful drawings by Frazetta. There is tape on the spine, so Maria Mendoza gave a nice discount. I am all smiles right now.

Back in the eighties, two of my coworkers and I were walking back from lunch in the North Beach part of San Francisco, as we walk by the topless clubs on Broadway, a barker shouts “Perverts half price, two out of three of youse guys will qualify.” No work got done that afternoon, since the finger pointing never stopped. Good times!😂

Luckily, I attended UC Berkeley during 1973-76, and frequently purchased from Bob. I remember attending the BerkeleyCon in April 1973 and buying Weird Science 19 from Bob. Bob always found interesting ephemera. I remember prying the Donald Duck cartoon poster “Drip Drippy Donald” loose from Bob for $60. Sadly, I traded the poster and a bunch of SA Marvels for my first copy of Four Color 9, and never found another copy of the poster.

My Barks estate book bought in 2012. Love the sweat coming off Scrooge. Enjoyed the tearjerker story.

Not me. I have never sold on eBay. My copy has the genuine 3d glasses.

To correct the orientation of a photo, 1. Using your phone, take a photo of the photo. 2. Use the editing feature to rotate your photo to the correct orientation. 3. Post.

In 1994, a 1975 interview with Carl Barks was released on VHS.

Your comment reminded me of the Mickey Rodent story in Mad #19, Goony (Goofy) reminds Darnold (Donald) Duck that he is’nt wearing pants.

Reminds me of this comic book, mostly because Justice League 6 is one of the books that I vividly remember reading as a child. My childhood copy is coverless. Having worked as a professional statistician, you can use probabilities to your benefit. Jerry and Marge Selbee made $26 million from the lottery using one of two fundamental theorem of statistics, the law of large numbers.

Looks like seventies BullMark tin remote control Godzilla. Marusan produced this product with a blue controller in 1964 to coincide with the Godzilla vs the Thing (Mothra). Marusan went bankrupt in1968. With the current yen to dollar exchange rate, appears to be a good buy. Here is a photo from the internet, but not mine.

I remember these stamps were issued during 2006 SDCC. Seeing the line at SDCC was very long, I went to the post office a few blocks away and was practically the only patron.

RIP. Met Roger at OAFCON.

While my car was receiving routine maintenance at the dealer, I was able to walk over to Kayo Books at their new location at 907 Post Street in San Francisco. Though still a work in progress, the owners Ron Blum and Maria Mendoza invited me to browse. Even though I miss the mismatched book shelves of the old store, the light and spaciousness of the new store will be greatly appreciated by book enthusiasts. The official opening will take place next year. My small haul. Easily, Kayo Books is the best used book store in the San Francisco Bay Area, and probably the universe.😂 I was the first customer at their new location. If you tell them the BitterOldMan Ray sent you, you might get a discount or kicked out and permanently banned.
