On February 20, 1962, after three years of training, John Glenn rocketed into space aboard the Mercury capsule Friendship 7. He became the third American in space and the first to orbit Earth. The historical flight was no easy feat. At the end of his first orbit, a yaw attitude jet clogged, forcing Glenn to abandon the automatic control system and use the manual electrical fly-by-wire system.
In 4 hours and 56 minutes, John Glenn circled the globe three times, reaching speeds of more than 17,000 miles per hour. The successful mission concluded with a splashdown and recovery in the Atlantic Ocean, 800 miles southeast of Bermuda.

Looks like the first edition of a comic book with new characters. Anyone have any other ideas?

The Wonderful Fire Proof Phenomenon,
Who lately caused so much Astonishment in Paris, by his supernatural Powers, and in consequence of GOING INTO AN OVEN, in Presence of the Royal Academy of Physicians, WITH A LEG OF MUTTON, and remaining shut up in it until the meat was well-baked. This Experiment he will have the honor of performing again, whenever a liberal subscription shall be made for the purpose.
IVAN IVANITZ CHABERT,
The only Really Incombustible Phenomenon
His performance will consist of the following extraordinary proofs of his supernatural Power of RESISTING THE MOST INTENSE HEAT OF EVERY KIND, and he pledges himself that no sleight of hand (as is usual in these Things) will be practiced:
1. He will forge with his Hands and Feet a Bar of Red Hot Iron, which he will, without other means, widen and lengthen considerably.
2. He will undergo the Torture by Fire, as used in the Spanish Inquisition.
3. He will drink, positively, boiling Oil and wash his hands and feet in it.
4. He will drop on his Tongue a large Quantity of Burning Sealing Wax, from which any of the Company may take impressions of their Seals.
5. He will eat burning Charcoal.
6. He will inspirate the Flames of a Torch.
7. Will bathe his feet in boiling Lead, and pour it into his Mouth with his hand, or any of the Company may do it with a spoon.
8. Will pour the strongest Aqua Fortis on Steel Filings, and trample on it with his bare Feet.
9. He will hold in his Teeth a Bar of Red Hot Iron, until it shall lose its principal heat.
10. Will rub a Red Hot Shovel on his Arms and Legs, and hold it on his head until the Hair Shall be too warm for any By-stander to hold his Hand on it.
11. He will pour Vitriol, Oil, and Arsenic into the Fire, and hold his Head in the Flames, and inhale the vapours.
12. He will eat of a lighted torch with a Fork, as if it were a salad.
13. Will dissolve a Piece of Copper in the Hollow of his Hand, with Aqua Fortis.
And in the Evening, to complete the Astonishment of those who may honor him with their Presence, a brilliant Display of FIREWORKS will play on him, till his SHIRT shall be burnt on his Back.

So, how does the figure measure up in the final analysis? I do like it. Maybe not $60 like it, but I do. I think the biggest problem is that this is a kid's toy that Hasbro tried to market as a collector's toy. Had this thing just hit the market as a $40 Leader Class figure rather than an Amazon Exclusive super figure, there would have been a lot less bitching. As it is, I don't regret buying it (unless it does drop down to $40, then I'll feel like an ass :P)

Kia Sportage 2.0 CRDi First Edition in Sirius Silver.
This is the first release of this new vehicle in the UK. Only 850 have been imported from Kia's new factory in Slovenia and I have been lucky enough to get one. The rest of the model range comes on stream in November.
If anyone had asked me a few years back if I would ever buy I Kia I would have been very quick to say no.
However, having looked around at different 'crossover' vehicles such as the Nissan Qashqai, Mazda CX7, Ford Kuga and even the Land Rover Freelander this is the one that drew my eye.
I think it is a very good looker, it drives well, is very good value for money and has a lot more 'bells and whistles' than the Discovery and will certainly be a lot cheaper to run.
So there we are - a very difficult decision for a dyed in the wool Land Rover Fan
but it's done!

The novelist Ernest Hemingway once remarked that “all modern American literature comes from one book by Mark Twain called Huckleberry Finn,” and other writers such as poet T. S. Eliot and African American novelist Ralph Ellison have added their acclaim. Mark Twain, the pen name of Samuel Clemens, worked for eight years on the story of an outcast white boy, Huck, and his adult friend Jim, a runaway slave, who together flee Missouri on a raft down the Mississippi River in the 1840s. The book has been controversial since the day it was published, opinions ranging from “the book is a masterpiece” to the book is “trash and suitable only for the slums.” The free-spirited and not always truthful Huck narrates the colorful stories in the book in his own coarse and ungrammatical voice. He shows a lack of respect for religion and adult authority and repeatedly uses the “n” word. Some readers view the book as satire and consider it a powerful attack on racism. Others believe it contributes to a “racially hostile environment” and are offended by the language and the portrayal of the slave Jim. In spite of it all, Huck Finn remains the Great American Novel to the many people who have read it and loved it.

From the book "Uncle Remus: His Songs & His Sayings" by Joel Chandler Harris. NY: D. Appleton, 1881. 1st Edition
“Uncle Remus” is a collection of animal stories, songs, and folklore from African-Americans in the South. Uncle Remus is a former slave who serves as a storytelling device, passing on the folktales to children gathered around him. Br’er Rabbit is the main character of the stories, a likable character, prone to tricks and trouble-making, who is often opposed by Br’er Fox and Br’er Bear.
The stories have inspired at least three feature films. The first and best known is Walt Disney’s “Song of the South,” released in 1946. The film combined live action with animation and it starred James Baskett, a vaudeville and radio actor, as the unforgettable Uncle Remus. The film's depiction of black former slaves, and of race relations in Reconstruction-Era Georgia, has been controversial since its original release, with a number of critics – at the time of its release and in later decades – describing it as racist. Consequently it has never been released in its entirety on home video in the United States. [Source: Wikipedia]
Who can possibly forget this song from the film:

Close call!
We shot several lots of cool old books this afternoon while the crisp fall days are still hanging on and the light is just perfect.
A quick bit of Google research at my desk showed me that the dark blue book with the orangy title to be no ordinary used book, but a genuine 1927 first edition copy of Sinclair Lewis's famous work; Elmer Gantry!
In the first edition, the first letter of Gantry looks like the letter "C" and it's worth a nice chunk of change. Cool!
Who'da thunk it?

Here is how John Keel’s “Jadoo” is described on the dust jacket:
From the Upper Nile to the lower Ganges and the Roof of the World in Tibet, John Keel traveled in search of Jadoo – the black magic of the Orient – and had some of the most fantastic experiences ever to appear on the printed page. Everywhere he went he hunted down the mystics, lamas, jadoo-wallas and fakirs, befriending them and ferreting out their secrets. He learned how to do the Indian Rope trick, be buried alive, to charm snakes, walk on water and stick pins into himself without bleeding. He discovered the truth behind bearded cobras, two-headed snakes, trees growing out of the ground in a matter of minutes, X-ray eyes that can see through blindfolds and other “supernatural” phenomena.
But Mr. Keel also found magic with no logical explanation. As skeptical as the rest of us, he is still puzzled by the Tibetan monk who sat in his cell and knew immediately of an occurrence in a village many miles away, and the lama he interviewed who sat cross-legged in midair balanced only on a staff.
Just as fascinating as the magic are Mr. Keel’s incredible adventures in the East. In Baghdad he played Russian Roulette with “the most dangerous man in Iraq,” witnessed the religious rites of devil worshippers in an underground temple and investigated the manufacturing of mummies out of fresh corpses. He met Tenzing, the Sherpa guide, lost his car in a raging waterfall, and hunted down the “Abominable Snowman” in the Himalayas. He was almost crushed to death by a camel, bitten by a cobra and set upon by cutthroats.
What he saw and did will astonish readers with a taste for the bizarre. Here is really off-beat adventure, told by an engaging, unpredictable author.
