OldMod67 8th Oct 2020		Book Andy Neill - Anyway Anyhow Anywhere (2002)	Images added, dustjacket and frontispiece/ title page
OldMod67 8th Oct 2020		Book Nigel Cox - Lambretta (1996)	Images added. NB When published, Haynes sent me a cool showcard to promote this. Unfortunately in the intervening 24 years it seems to have wandered....
OldMod67 8th Oct 2020		Book George Lucas - Star Wars (1977)	I realised, after decades of owning this that this edition was printed in Australia for sale abroad and not a UK copy! Correction already submitted..
OldMod67 7th Oct 2020		Book James Kahn - Star Wars: Return Of The Jedi (1983)	Cover added
OldMod67 7th Oct 2020		Book Nick Churchill - Yeah Yeah Yeah (2011)	More images added
OldMod67 7th Oct 2020		Book Anthony Fawcett - John Lennon: One Day At A Time (1977)	Front cover added
OldMod67 7th Oct 2020		Book A. J. S. Rayl - Beatles '64 (1989)	Images added (apologies for quality!)
OldMod67 6th Oct 2020		Book John Wyndham - The Chrysalids (1958)	Images added, I'm aware of the lack of quality, owing to my only tech gadget now being a Kindle (no laptop, scanner or even smartphone) Please treat my images from September onwards as 'holding images', until a fellow .cat member replaces mine. Thanks.
OldMod67 6th Oct 2020		Book John Wyndham - The Midwich Cuckoos (1965)	Sorry, hit 'submit' too early... 'A' format 220pp Reprinted 1960 (twice), 1961, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1965 Cover drawing by Paul Hogarth. The first pb had this illustration, with Penguin's vertical panels either side.
OldMod67 1st Oct 2020		Book Ransom Riggs - The Conference Of Birds (2020)	Front and rear cover of exclusive edition added. Images not as my previous book standard due to relying on old Kindle, instead of laptop & scanner.
OldMod67 1st Oct 2020		Book D. H. Lawrence - Lady Chatterley's Lover (1961)	Cover images added (best I could get)
OldMod67 30th Sep 2020		Book Paolo Hewitt - Steve Marriott (2004)	Front & rear cover added (via Kindle). Just holding images really, if someone can replace please feel free!
OldMod67 29th Sep 2020		Book Sheila Burnford - The Incredible Journey (1963)	Images added, apologies for quality - feel free to correct/replace...
OldMod67 29th Sep 2020		Book Sheila Burnford - The Incredible Journey (1963)	Coronet edition 1963, my copy Seventeenth impression 1975 (from a school book club actually, but regular edition)
OldMod67 19th Sep 2020		Book Mike Roote - Enter The Dragon (1974)	@David Whiteley Thanks David, my copy is a tad 'scuffed'....
OldMod67 14th Sep 2020		Book Danger Man Annual - World Distributors (1965)	@23skidoo: no, I wanted Danger Man and Dangerman to be linked to assist searches.

OldMod67 21st Jul 2020		Book Edgar Allan Poe - A Selection Of Tales Of Mystery And Imagination (1953)	Printed in Great Britain by Ebenezer Baylis And Son, Limited, The Trinity Press, Worcester and London.
OldMod67 11th Jul 2020		Book Euro Football - Figurine Panini (1977)	..and another one. I was absolutely obsessed with collecting the Dutch first when this came out - and I did! I do recall the cover becoming detached; wonder where it is now?
OldMod67 8th Jul 2020		Book Gilbert Shelton - The Collected Adventures Of The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers (1986)	They did indeed! My original thought was on maybe 45 spaces, as someone I knew years ago had 'world' for modzines. But the 'comic' is sadly lacking; comics and graphic novels would be very welcome categories when 'The Powers ' are able to add them on. I look forward to any more you're adding! Thanks again.
OldMod67 8th Jul 2020		Book Gilbert Shelton - The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers (1990)	@Bodston. This is interesting as I stopped at #10, The Idiots Abroad, part three. I haven't found mine (hope that wasn't nicked too) but there was also a newspaper called, I think, The Freak Flyer available for a really limited time. I only had the one issue, but maybe that was all there was?
OldMod67 8th Jul 2020		Book Gilbert Shelton - The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers In "Grass Roots" (1987)	'I Wish I'd bought' moment # 23 : in the mid eighties or so, a hardcover, full colour version from a comic shop in Bournemouth. It was gone on my next visit....
OldMod67 8th Jul 2020		Book Gilbert Shelton - Further Adventures Of Those Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers (1986)	Also issued with the cover having an orange skyline.
OldMod67 8th Jul 2020		Book Gilbert Shelton - The Collected Adventures Of The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers (1986)	Wow, I'm so glad these are being added. By the time I thought about it my scanner was kaput, so I passed. None of mine are barcoded and some have no ISBN, some like #1 were £1.00 in the UK, going up to £1.25 at issue #7. Unfortunately I lent some to my cousin in the late 80s and he was burgled, so I'm missing numbers 3 & 4. I only recently dug them out to show my son (Rip Off and others too) Thanks for adding these, many a good giggle with these in my youth!
OldMod67 4th Jul 2020		Book Football 78 - Figurine Panini (1978)	@cannyuk. That may just be too depressing to contemplate! I still haven't found my Man From U.N.C.L.E car.....
OldMod67 4th Jul 2020		Book The Residents - The Residents: An Almost Complete Collection Of Lyrics (1989)	And what a fabulous rear cover pic, thanks!
OldMod67 19th Jun 2020		Book J. R. R. Tolkien - The Hobbit (1979)	@23skidoo. Thanks for uploading the pix. Even if I could scan mine it would be useless, as mine has been read to death over the last 40 years and the condition reflects that! The cover illustration is as your copy, but mine's on a brown background, an Unwin logo at centre bottom. Thanks again.
OldMod67 14th Jun 2020		Book Various Contributors - The Ren & Stimpy Show Tastes Like Chicken (1995)	Not numbered, but often referred to as Volume Two.
OldMod67 14th Jun 2020		Book Various Contributors - The Ren & Stimpy Show Pick Of The Litter (1994)	Not numbered, but often referred to as Volume One.
OldMod67 10th Jun 2020		Book Peter O'Donnell - The Silver Mistress (1975)	@23skidoo. Yeah, I've put forth my views before on this and despite members' pointers to change to International, I don't think this is always actioned. I stand by my views regarding where the book was printed for (not always where it was printed or bound) and imports are just that, manufactured for a market elsewhere. Having said all that, I wouldn't request changing your entries! I rarely request anything unless I spot a typo (including mine). You've had a great run adding entries recently and I for one appreciate it!
