--- Quote from: Drusilla lives! on August 04, 2010, 10:21:10 AM ---I've read various excerpts from it Yoc... bits and pieces of it were used in the notes to Russ Cochran's Weird Fantasy volumes (part of his EC Library collection). I would love to get a hold of a copy though... that, and a copy of that big Wood bio that came out just a few years back.
I searched Amazon a while back for it (that Gaines bio) and couldn't find it at all... is it still in publication?

Drusilla lives!:
Thanks Jim.

Abe's does seem to have almost anything. My wife is a huge fan of the movie GLORY. She likes civil war history and especially the 54th. We found several copies of "Lay this Laurel" at Abe's and I got her one for her birthday.

On a somewhat related note, I found this news rather interesting. The Wertham papers have been opened to the public at the Library of Congress (here's also a direct link to a LofC blog with more info).
Seems that those of you who are interested in finding out exactly which comics Wertham used in his "research" (and what he thought of them) will get the chance to finally find out. :)
Yoc:
Very interesting!
I'm sure the sellers will be listing any comics not already flagged and doubling their prices (more?) on them.
*sigh*
Still, it's something I'd love to spend a day looking around at.
