That time of year..
Accompanied the wife to the Costco and BJ's wholesale
this weekend, they had some interesting stuff that
might be of interest to like minded Qlisters:
Books:
Porsche: The Fine Art of the Sports Car
Lucinda Lewis (Photographer)
Price: $24.99
Hardcover, 336pp.
ISBN: 1571451358
Publisher: Abbeville Press, Incorporated
Pub. Date: September 1990
LARGE format book, impressive looking, would
make an excellent gift for a Porsche-phile.
Can't get a shifter knob for this price, book
looks like you spent $100 for it.
The other was:
The Encyclopedia of Cars
Chris Horton
Price: $18.79
Hardcover, 752pp.
ISBN: 0785810153
Publisher: Book Sales
Pub. Date: September 1998
A keeper, lots of info on dead
marquis and live ones.
There were also a few "coffee table" auto books,
at good prices.
Since they usually buy universally across the
country, Costco had many new Maisto models in
stock (no Audis..), mostly Mercyless Benz,
1/18 scale, the usual $9.99. (vs. up to $29 in
retail outlets)
BJ's wholsale had lots of new Bburago models too,
1/18 scale, same price. Picked up a few Porsches
I didn't have.
Tis the season...
BTW-received my Autoweek today, my 15 minutes of
non-fame, the glassy-eyed "bullet proof
mobile home" ad was submitted by me. NO, I'm
not the advertiser, just sent the ad..if any
lister happens to need a mobile home that will
deflect a 50cal round, I do have the original
800 number.
