Quote from: bk on June 13, 2025, 06:57:17 PMFor anyone here who might be interested - I found an extra hardcover first edition of Meredith Willson's great book about the making of The Music Man - But He Doesn't Know the Territory - in great condition in a great jacket and - SIGNED by Willson from him and Rini (his wife). This book in this condition goes for big money - the only signed like copy on the ABE is eight or nine hundred bucks. I paid three hundred for this many years ago - I somehow got two copies back then but forgot about this until I just found it rummaging around in the garage. Happy to let it go for the three hundred and postage.Wow. Not at this moment, but wow.

Nice haircut, George.
I sent the manuscript to the editor.
Now watching some PBS broadcast from the Met.
Have you noticed George isn't here?
Perhaps he's gone the way of all fleshy flesh.
