[ModLib] Horde of Haldeman-Julius Little Blue Book SeriesAnywhere?/ASEs

[Allbooks at aol.com]

I think you're referring to the Armed Services Editions.  The Library  of 
Congress published a guidebook a few years ago by a staffer named Cole, I  
believe.  They were much larger than the LLL or LBB (which were  shirt-pocket size); 
printed on the same presses as the pulp fiction  magazines, which couldn't 
get paper for their civilian clientele; run two  up and then cut in two.  There 
were actually two slightly different  sizes.

There was a similar series, slightly larger format, printed for  the US armed 
forces in WWII? Anyone remember that series???

Yeah. Of course, LLL and LBB were really quite different series  promoted by 
different folks. I like the LBB because they're numbered, they  have some 
REALLY weird titles, and there are so many of them to  collect!!!


Hmm -- do I smell another website???
