  8. The Pan Ams came from a single source and all I have. Only time I’ve seen any. I have a fair amount of BLBs. Can’t say I seeked many out just grabbed them when they became available. If you have a small specific want list, PM me and I will see what I can do.
  9. I’ve only got 2 amps now. A black face pre CBS Fender Twin reverb I use for playing live. I also have a ‘54 Fender tweed Champ Amp for around the house. I have also miked it for live shows in small rooms. Got it out of the back of a truck at a flea market for $100. That TJ Brass album reminds me of my mom. She loved them and played that all the time. Wasn’t cool when I was a kid… I too, tend to play a lot of stuff like the last two. Sounds so good on vinyl with good speakers.

  14. The Neon Wilderness by Nelson Algren 1949 Avon #222 An Avon classic streetwalker cover. Used later as the cover for Intimate Confessions #1 comic book. One of the best Avons. This copy is missing one interior page. (yep, I count them). First page neatly detached but clean with no tears or creases. A little wear at top and spine rubbing.Right side looks trimmed but I suspect it isn’t because the book has a slight spine roll. A very decent filler copy with no damage to the classic cover!
