I gotta say this book is effing amazing. It is an absolute necessity to own as a rockclimber. Images of principal characters from the seventies that are not only uncommon---never-before-seen actually--- but show aspects of the era and the climbers that reveals far more than has been shown before. Astounding. Huge kudos to especially Bullwinkle (Dean) for finding all this stuff, scattered all over the place. Order now! This anthology is astounding!!

This thread NEEDS to be on the front page. My wife and I had the pleasure of having dinner with Mike and Wendy last night up in his neighborhood and to my TOTAL and complete suprise, he popped out an early version of the book!!! I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS TO COME OUT. If you have not ordered a copy...DO SO. This book is one of the best I've seen. It's thick,(worth the money)has TONS of great photos,(worth the money)and loads of great stories(worth the money)! No bull this book is worth every penny and will be one you probably read over and over. I got a fast look at it, before handing it back to Mike, don't want to spoil my suprise when I get my copy. If you like climbing books get yer order in, can't believe you won't LOVE it. Mike, Dean, John and all others involved have outdone themselves. I'm anxiously awaiting the release date.
Peace

Steve, you may have missed a bit of ephemera which elicited Bullwinkle's exuberant post

Hey What happened to nena's post? it was classic Spam on Spam I thought. There must be a wackamole out there. I was afraid to click on those links...
Ron, Thanks for the bumps (again) we had a great time the other night with you and Kelly. I'm stoked you liked what you saw in the book.
Thanks for all the orders folks!

Even an Aging Never-Was-Been like me can't wait to get my wrinkled paws on this book.

Any progress report? Given recent events, we would all understand if the book was a little delayed.

Bullwinkle says the book it at the printers (as of the JB memorial) so it must be available very very soon.

Hi Guys
Books are printed and on the way. We’ll have them in our hands the week of the 21st.
Both Largo and Bullwinkle will be giving a slide show at the Face Lift on the 25th I believe. So if you can, be there! There will also be books available at that time.
Thanks to all for all the advanced orders.
Cheers!

Here’s the latest on the book.
They’re clearing customs right now and should be in out warehouse by the end of the week. John and Dean will be signing them this weekend for all you pre-purchasers.
I have spent a past few days pulling out what little hair I have left trying to get our “Mass Mail” program to send Mail announcing this, with little luck. But I think I got it licked now based on a few auto-replies I received back.
I know some people will be going to the FaceLift that have ordered books and I don’t want it to cross them in the mail and miss their early delivery. If you reply to the mail we sent out (hopefully) you can arrange to pick them up from me personally at the event.
Cheers,
Mike
