Popular Post AJD Posted December 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted December 25, 2022 Here's a fun Australian book from the late 40s. It's 10" square and our hero has been renamed 'Speed' because at that time calling someone 'flash' meant that they were a show-off 'Richard cranium'. Later Australian versions used the right name.
