Collections... comic books, 30's and 40's era black desk phones, and of course rockets...

You have good taste.

I don't collect comic books (threw 2 large boxes of them away before I was aware they were collectable), but I still have a box load and I really like the old desk phones—particularly the ones with the metal dailers and white number spots with red numbers.

Yep, tea pots. They're miniature ones, ceramic, metal, etc. I have no idea how I got started with that. I love tea, so that was the start of it.
Comics I collect are Super Duck from the 40's, all manner of EC comics from the 50's- Tales from The Crypt, Vault of Horror, Incredible Science Fiction, Mad, etc.

MDRA is Maryland Delaware Rocketry Association, really good group. They will be hosting the 1:9th scale Saturn 1B launches of Steve Ives and Vern (forgot last name ) this spring.
We're having a launch this weekend. All modes of rocketry from micro-max to P motors , commercial and exp . Also home field to Dr. Zooch! (or one of his home fields).

No "FREAK BROTHERS" comics?

Hmmm, I found a "Zap" in a box in the attic a couple of months ago. Great stuff. I know I had some "Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers," "Tales of the Leather Nun" and various and assorted other underground comics, but dogged if I know what happened to them. Maybe they'll turn up one day.

I posted in "Wanted Dead or Alive" for anyone that might have late sixties, early seventies Centuri kit cards from their packaging. I'd like to mount four and frame them. If anyone possesses one or some, I'd be glad to buy 'em from you. That, or if you could do high-res scans, that 'd be cool as well. Anyone?

Ordered some kits from Semroc—those buggers are the Katz PJ's! First time I've bought a kit since the early nineties and man—what a difference twenty years make.

Hey Spaceclipper, thanks for the link! I'm not far at all from Higg's farm. I'd like to come up this Sunday (if obligations permit) and bring my gal to watch you folks have some fun. I had looked but didn't find any MD/DE clubs. I've never been to an organized launch before, let alone see any HPR's. I'm gonna try to work this out. Thanks again!

NARHAMS is the Maryland NAR club, but we're not all that convenient to the ES. We fly in Frederick County right now.

Yeah, I found you folks on the NAR club listings, but you're right—it 'd be a bit of a hoof for me.

Your welcome ! Tommy serves up barbecue too, worth the price of admission for his barbecue chicken... It's a great field , lots of model rockets as well as mid and high power.
I have some Fabulous Furry Freak brothers comics and Zap! comics as well. Robert Crumb turned out some great comics and has an unmistakable art style.

Crumb has released an illustrated "Book of Genesis" just a few months ago. Classic R. Crumb style (his signature thick-limbed women) and amazingly—it's not irreverent at all. He sticks to the story line. Still wish I had my old "Stoned Again" poster.
