  1. Been reading up on the novel adaptions of films and TV by John Burke, and there were some interesting covers for them too.... .
  2. The above is included in this potted history of British Fanzines on Dez Skinn's website. Plenty of other good stuff there too..... https://dezskinn.com/fanzines/
  3. There were loads of the Alfred Hitchcock Dell PB's this is only a drop in the ocean. AS always with hitch, darkly humourous, and clever titles. I wonder how much input he had in the artwork?
  4. Tom Jones - What's New Cat @frozentundraguy Dale, This is up for the worst SF PB cover.
  5. Updated Map for Comic Shops in the UK and Ireland. Just use mouse wheel to home in on a particular area. https://downthetubes.net/?page_id=9384
  6. The word is out. Nice name check for you Steve. https://themagicrobot.wordpress.com/2019/12/01/get-marwood-and-i/
  7. Nice little write up on the 2nd British Comic Art Convention in 1969 at the Waverley Hotel in London attended by 70, or so people, so plenty of elbow room https://downthetubes.net/?p=113051
  8. Don't fancy your one Maurice..... ( Bagsy mine's in the middle).
  9. Greg Lake - I believe In Father Christmas......
  10. Pigmeat Marham - Here Comes The Judge.
  11. Lou looks a bit too calm. Any ideas where this is, or from, anyone, as I've no caption or anything with details?
  12. It looks as though they supply a wholesalers actually located in Belfast, Maurice, which means of course they supply retailers in the UK. Check out Palmer Agencies, they may be able to give the name of who they supply. https://www.trickortreatstudios.com/wholesalers/
  13. She was great in the original Poseidon Adventure. Like you say very vulnerable in her own way. and just right for such parts Is Jeff Rice , Anne Rice before the gender realignment? Seriously though, how did the original story match up with the show? Is it one of those rare ocassions where the film outdoes the book, or at least equals the original story?
  14. There were several of these mock up covers produced. They all look pretty good. I see that Carol Lynley died in September of this year. Interestingly Richard Mattheson's screenplay was adapted from an unpublished story, so well done to him for saving a great idea.
  15. You was questioning the colouring of the bold font of the 12 cent JIM 76 being brown and not black,. I'm just pointing out that they did use the font and colour on a 10 cents copy of a book in the same series. So, this....... Could still be a possibility
  16. Located in Queen Anne's Court, which ran between Wardour St and Berwick St, 25 yards up on the opposite side was Trident Studios which was used by The Beatles to rehearse Hey Jude, and record some White Album tracks. futrther up were gambling dens and flats used by ladies of the night. That should have been St. Anne's Court as this proves.
  17. Brian Bolland's artwork, I still have this paper bag for FP2 from that era.... And the reverse side. was for the original shop in Denmark Street....
