    Sex & relationship advice in the 1970s was vastly superior to that of the '50s, which were better than the '30s... We should know. We've been here the whole time!
    These seem a little mansplain-ish by today's standards, & probably so. Still useful, though. Maybe good for laughs!

    There's a pleasure in reading a rough old pulp paperback. Will new books, with generic graphics on "immortal" acid-free paper catch the interest of a reader 3 or 4 generations hence?

    Older books instantly transport a reader into their stories. Texture makes the world feel real, organic, and lived-in, the art gives you a clue what's in store, & they absolutely grab your attention!

    It's insect season. Some are good, some aren't. These will help you know the difference. You might look the bugs up on your phone; but real books are better... You can swat the bad bugs with an old book. Try that with your phone and you could be out a few hundred bucks!

    Adult Western fans, let's call this two-gun Tuesday. Passion & Action, double-barreled double entendre. Many of these series blew through like a tumbleweed. Others linger like the memory of perfumed passion after the musk of the dusty trail, numbering into the hundreds. Lace your chaps or your corset & rustle up some rollicking adventures!

    New to our Biographies... In '72 Hughes' Corp. built the Glomar Explorer mining/salvage vessel. To build it, a giant crane barge was made by Sun Shipbuilding. It was all a CIA cover, to recover a wrecked Soviet sub. That crane, the Chesapeake 1000, still works today at the MV Dali-shipwrecked Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore, MD.

    If "The Spirit of '76" makes you think of Will Eisner instead of America's birthday, you might be a pulp fan.
    When you hear "Psycho" and think of Robert Bloch instead of an ex, you might be a pulp fan.
