Sneak peek, spy, any chance to post a picture of Diana Rigg as Emma Peel.
So what’s up this week?
We’ll memorialize the recently departed Andy Rooney and look into the death of the not-so-recently-departed Judge Crater. Regular features The American Chopper Weekly Rundown, Saturday Comics, and Picture Postcard are alive and kicking, and France will be in the Imponderable spotlight this week. All this, some tasty Hostess fruit pies, and more, this week at Mr. Blog’s Tepid Ride.
Bozo was a little before my time. I still had tons of Bozo coloring books and pictures though. My grandpa worked for a company that did business with Keds, the sneaker company. He got a ton of freebies. All throughout my youth I wore Pro-Keds, those blue canvas sneakers with the rubber Keds tag on the back. For some reason I always peeled it off.
One of the things we also grew up with were giant Bozo coloring pads. These were big pads, maybe three feet tall (but I was a lot smaller so who knows how big they really were) and each sheet was a black and white picture of Bozo to color in. Every page was the same picture but I didn’t care. I’d lay on the floor and color the day away. It was great being a kid.
Anyway, Bozo gives me a touch of nostalgia. Here is Bozo’s comic book. Click on the thumbnails to enlarge.
