Garth Williams Treasury of Best-Loved Golden Books This is a $13 art

book that rivals the $50 ones. It’s full of great stories and the most

amazing art. Glorious print quality and lovely paper. Basically the image

quality is like art plates. Garth Williams is the premier genius of modern

era children’s book art. But when you see this, you’ll see that “children”

might be a misnomer. I put no qualifiers on this art, or on these stories.

You won’t find them anywhere else either. Not at this quality…or at this

completeness: for some reason several of the books in 1970’s editions were

missing chunks of 4 pages! –Of brilliant art! The damn chiseling publisher!

Finally, all wrongs are righted in this complete and glorious volume. Enjoy.



Bud Stewart–Michigan’s Legendary Lure Maker, by Frank Baron and Raymond

L. Carver. A gorgeous photobook of the wildest fishing lures ever. Wonderful

painting and psychedelic renditions of what are still very naturalistic

baits. Love that catfish! Handpainted baits mass-produced well past the

era when factories did it all. Famous Bud insisted that by hand was the

way to do it, or your money back. He fished what he preached. An oldtimer

with big vision, reminds me of Rockwell Kent. Walks the fine line between

over the top and dead on the money—either you or your favorite bass will

want to walk away with any Bud Stewart you’re lucky enough to find.





Video Hound’s Golden Movie Retriever. I compared all video books and

their features and now use this one only. This has what you need. No others

do. Fancy that!
