DrWatson Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Wow, Brad! I bet that took a lot of work. (thumbs u I have taken your advice and I am working on a Northland X-Men web page. I don't know if I have the patience that you must have had to put so much time and effort into yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Hook Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Actually, it took about two hours on a slow Sunday afternoon. I had a full fledged datageek attack and jumped into it. I hate to say it....but it...was fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay..... this is what OCD collectors THRIVE ON! Here we go FC.... I checked and ALL the dates that were neither Tuesday or Thursday.....were Mondays. Now....one possiblity was that for those eight books....the clerk or whoever was stamping just stamped the wrong date. But I took a closer examination of the five mondays that Green Rivers arrived on and here they are...... • May 21, 1963 - was the Monday before Memorial Day which fell on Thursday May 30, 1963 • Nov 21, 1966 - was the Monday before Thanksgiving which fell on Thursday Nov 24, 1966 • Nov 6, 1967 - was the Monday before Veterans Day which was observed on Friday Nov 10, 1967 • Nov 20, 1967 - was the Monday before Thanksgiving which fell on Thursday Nov 23, 1967 • Dec 18, 1967 - was a Monday, one week before Christmas. I like the idea that if there were no delivers on a holiday day later in the week, the distributor moved the day up one day. Of course that makes no sense for the last date. But there is some kind of pattern here. Anyway, mull it over. Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
