Fred Flintstone and Good Old Unreliable Dino – Book and Record
Fred Flintstone and Good Old Unreliable Dino, The Flintstones, Peter Pan Book and Records #1978, copyright 1976. What is that kid wearing?
Star Trek Book Log Three
Star Trek Log Three by Alan Dean Foster. Ballantine books, 1975. Cover art supplied by Filmation Associates. This belongs to a friend.
Cheryl Ladd Magazine
Cheryl Ladd,Volume 1, Number 3. November 1978. I don’t have the cover, which I probably had on my wall. Someday soon I’m going to scan this whole thing, not so much for the articles as the advertisements. They are right out of 1978, and anyone who was around then should love them. The Bay City Rollers posters is one example.
I’m not sure what publisher to put here. Dell distributing, Celebrity Parade, or Lorelie Publishing Co. Inc. It’s hard to find info on this magazine, cause when you search for “Cheryl Ladd magazine” you get a ton of magazines that had Cheryl Ladd in them. Anyone have any info they can share?
More Paperback Cover Art
Post #3 of 5. These are in my library for sale, fifty cents plus shipping. Unless I rip you off in shipping, I’m not making any money on these, just offering them to an audience that might appreciate them.
Night Flight: Daring Air Pioneers in Stormy Skies by Antoine de St-Exupery. Signet 1945?. I wouldn’t call this one “pulp” other than the paper, it’s more like a mass-market paperback, but I really like the cover art minimalist drawing. And this paticular cover seems hard to find.
The Hilton Bedside Book. An anthology of entertaining reading. Vol. 7. 1968. I think I’ll leave the jokes up to you.

Must You Conform? by Robert Lindner. A Black Cat Book 1961. The author of Rebel Without a Cause? That makes sense actually. The oppressive mother and the whipped father being the cause of all James Dean’s problems written by a psychoanalyst.
The Girl With Something Extra by Paul W. Fairman. Lancer Books 1973. That looks like Sally Fields and John Davidson on the cover. It IS! Seems this became a TV show, or it was a TV show that became a book. Sally has E.S.P. and can read minds. Fits in perfectly with the 1970s interest in the occult and supernatural.
The Doors on PBS Tonight
Tonight there is a program about The Doors on PBS American Masters. Mrs. Hound (who ain’t no dog): “What are The Doors doing on a program about American masters? (Obviously she doesn’t care for them) Me: “I guess the program has been going on long enough they’ve run out of true masters.” Actually, I LOVE The Doors, but am fully aware of their shortcomings, but personally and musically.
Banana Splits Wind-up Toy
This just sucks, why is the background clear and the main object blurry? And why didn’t it show up better in the little preview window so I’d know to take the picture again? Anyway, this little Remco wind-up walking toy from the Banana Splits TV show is in my Dad’s store.
