Feel free to contact me for whatever reason. I will always reply to sensible comments. I will not value books, buy books, sell books or find buyers for you. I used to do all these things, and over time some folks were not happy with the value I put on a book or the length of time it took to sell a book. So, the best thing to do is not do any of it. The whiners ruined it for everybody.
Fuck me sideways the Nixon screw and the Star spangled swazie cover on your F & L ’72′ is epic!
I have the the skull cover on mine. Who did the cover art on that if you don’t mind me asking?
Ok let me know your thoughts on that i have to finish prancing around this little gem of a site.

Hi Martin,
I’m liking those old articles. Around 1975 I spent a fair amount of time in a library trying to find the ones he did for the Observer without any luck. Do you know if they’re available online anywhere?
cheers,
Steve

I just bought Generation of Swine by Hunter S. Thompson. I didn’t really look at it too much til I got home. I noticed that it had a message written on the first pages. I’ve looked at other copies on eBay and haven’t found one with the inscription. I did learn that it’s a 1st Edition and that it’s price clipped. I figure that it might be a forgery but I’d really like to know. Hope that you might be able to help me out.

Then one or maybe two a week until completed. Each one will be in PDF form. Just click the titles below. I will do my best to cover everything. Hopefully I didn’t miss too much. There may be some details missing here or there, such as one or two names of translators. I will continue to search for such information until its complete. I will be updating anything that is left out as time goes on. If you see any errors or want to add anything contact me here. [...]
