To Althist: I would love to read your books. If they resemble Rick Brant in any way, I sure would be interested. It would be a joy to partake of them....
Like probably many of you I have a fair collection of Rick Brant books and all but a couple are minus the Dust Jackets. I've got access to a laser printer...
Outside of one Rick Brant book (which you should guess) and the opening of the Egyptian Cat Mystery, I think all the Rick Brant books have either Rick or...
... I'd be interested in this as well. I'd like better jacket scans for the books going into Project Gutenberg. -- Greg Weeks http://durendal.org:8080/greg/...
... Smugglers' Reef is the only one I have a jacket scan from. A lower res image is here: http://durendal.org:8080/liad/jbsr000.jpg I can provide a 300ppi tif...

... His web site is http://members.cox.net/kenholt/index.htm I've not actually talked to him in ages, not since I finished up the Tom Swift Sr. for PG. -- Greg...
I recently re-read "Phantom Shark" and think it does well along with the other books in the series. Converting the P-40 was interesting. I do agree the deep...
Acquired books thanks to this group. I was fortunate enough to live near one of the contributors to this group. He sold me some of his overstock/reader...
I've seen "kidnapped" spelled "kidnaped" in quite a few series books. Mostly Hardy Boys, but in others too. I wonder if decades ago, that was also an...
Another alternate spelling I've seen recently is "bowlder" instead of "boulder". I read it in an Edward S. Ellis book, written in the late 1800's. 'Great...
... All the Rick Brant books are under copyright. Grosset & Dunlap did renewals as required at the time in the 1970's, it signed over some of the copyrights...

Well, I'm not arguing and wasn't even making a conclusion -- the "Copyright endures" line was from the pamphlet cited; but consider that John Blaine is a...
I have to agree with Phil on this one. I am sure the trust is doing due diligence in pursuing rights and characters. Otherwise we would have seen a movie or...
I first read "Whispering Box" when I was a kid, loved it, and it stuck with me for years. I looked for it in used book stores but never came it across it...
Well over the years I've seen that folks all have their favorites and someone is sure to rise to Phantom Shark's defense, but I feel the same way about these...
To Phil Oliver: As a ham operator (no longer active) from long ago, I caught the "73" at the end of your last. Pass on what that means... Here are a couple of...
