Nothing specifically about 45 picture sleeves. But you may like reading about a local collector who owns (and is willing to sell) things ranging from a drumstick Ringo used at the 1964 Indiana State Fair to a jogging suite John owned in the 1970s to the Tony Curtis cardboard cutout that was part of the Sgt. Pepper's photo shoot.
JUST AS I SUSPECTED: Hunter Thompson is alive and well! VIVA GONZO!
Oh, I do love HST. Did you see last month's (or is it this month's?) Rolling Stone? It's got bits from a new book on Thompson ~ kind of an oral history sort of a thing.
Hunter's is always a good, classic look. I assume you carried a little doctor's bag full of grapefruit and etc., as well.
Hum...It's tough to pick just one. I guess Generation of Swine is a favorite, as I grew up in the 80s. But, Fear and Loathing is probably his greatest work and such a major piece of literature, and Proud Highway includes such great correspondence, love letters and advice.
are you back from the ocean yet?
Lots o' great posts and one helluva photo gallery. Good stuff.
Thank you! I just put them up yesterday since I'm new on here.
Oh, the (little) Henry Miller Library was good, and had a great collection. If you buy a book, you get an official stamp!
Our stop there was part of an epic 2006 roadtrip that took Lola and I 3,500 miles, from Indianapolis to Seattle in a Jetta. Unfortunely for me, she became enchanted with the Pacific Northwest, and stayed...I'm trying to get her back for a visit in '08. Fingers crossed.

Nice photo gallery. I'm a fan of hand-painted, vintage-looking signs as well.
Right on, I certainly will check back for the new hand-painted sign pics. Thanks for letting me know.

Is there nothing that can topple the taste of an Oreo Klondike?
Oh thank you much! I still have yet to find a copy for my very own (Avon isn't the best place for finding them, oi). I see you're a photog as well. :)
