Thirteen Vintage Paperbacks
Thirteen paperbacks from my various collections.
#1 From my science fiction collection, a classic Scholastic: The Wonderful Flight to the Mushroom Planet.
#2 I’ll admit I’ve been remiss and have not read Junior Miss.
#3 Lad of Sunnybank, from my collie collection (which is growing into a general dog collection, but then collections are like packs, so the more the merrier).
#4 Fury and the White Mare, a throw-back to my childhood television days and part of my horse collection.
#5-6 Dating, ever confusing, requires books: Boy Dates Girl, and Betty Cornell’s All About Boys. Funny that I feel no further understanding from having read them… or any of the others in this collection. But then lack of understanding didn’t stop me from marrying one either.
#7-9 Three books which explore and exploit career perks your guidance counselor never told you about: Super-Jet Girls, Semi-Tough, and If It Moves, Kiss It.
#10 If the dating rules confuse, or if you’ve previously had a career in air travel or medicine, just say “Good Is For Angels,” and remember that motto, “a little sin – a lot of love.”
#11 And if you follow that motto, you’re likely headed for the Valley of the Dolls. (I preferred Beyond the Valley of the Dolls, myself.)
#12 Ode to Billy Joe — yes, the Billy Joe McAllister who jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge. Not read yet because I fear nothing can live up to the song.
#13 And based on all this, it’s no wonder that I need Zolar’s Occult Dream Book.
