During the memorable years when Radio was America's favorite home entertainment medium, the airwaves were permeated with all sorts of programming. There were the daytime dramas of domestic stress and five-day-a-week children's adventure serials. There were even adaptations of great works of the theater and literature. From Archie Andrews to Tom Mix, all radio characters and programs that ever stemmed from a comic book or comic strip in radio's golden age are collected here, for the first time, in an easy-to-read, A through Z book!

Produced by Aaron Spelling in 1965, Honey West was TV's first liberated female - a crack private investigator and an expert in martial arts - and beholden to no man. The beautiful Anne Francis was cast in the central role as the sexy, wise-cracking star, assisted by her cantankerous sidekick Sam Bolt (John Ericson), and somewhat flaky live-in, Aunt Meg (Irene Hervey). In 30 black-and-white episodes, Honey battles her way through the underworld by dint of her wits, judo prowess, and killer looks, aided by an arsenal of high-tech gimmicks, a sexy Cobra sports car, and an ocelot named Bruce! This ground-breaking book examines the series in detail with interviews of the surviving cast members, and listings of websites, addresses, bibliographies, episode synopses, and an appendix. Profusely illustrated. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

In the mid-1950s, American International Pictures was the self-proclaimed 'Infant of the Industry' and, as such, was not perceived as a serious threat to the major studios of the time. AIP soon proved themselves worthy opponents as their youth-oriented double features began raking in big bucks that rivaled and sometimes surpassed the profits of their competitors. This is the story of those years told mainly using material gathering by AIP's New York publicist. (immagine) Categoria: Books: novel/sci fi/horror

Hindsight is one man's remarkably revealing story about sex and relationships, on the silver screen and in his private life. Howie Gordon (screen name Richard Pacheco) was an award-winning actor during The Golden Age of Porn, whose memoir does not duck the question, 'What about love?' With charm, passion, wit, and what may best be described as a crude elegance, Gordon's story takes us back to the fabled Baby Boomer era, when erotic films took a dramatic step closer to mainstream entertainment in America.

(W) William Schoell The Silver Age of Comics looks at super-hero comic books that were published in the mid-fifties to late sixties, a period when super-heroes, most of whom had been replaced by science fiction, crime, and romance comics, once again gained popularity and grew to virtually take over the whole comic book industry. The book not only looks at popular and lesser-known series including those from smaller publishers such as Charlton and Gold Key, commenting on the most interesting stories, it also examines the artists who were prominent during this period, and looks at why their work could be so effective on different strips. The book also looks at how different comics reflected - or didn't reflect - the changing mores and attitudes of the turbulent times when civil rights, women's rights, and other social movements got more and more attention.

The Shadow - for the consideration of those who never heard a radio broadcast or read a pulp magazine - was a supernatural sleuth with a sepulchral chuckle. A detective whose success in tracking down criminals became a popular long-running radio program from 1937 to 1954. The program left an impression on adults who enjoyed reading the pulp magazines and on young children who listened to the chillers. This book documents the entire history of the long-running radio program, with rare never-before-seen photos, interviews with cast and crew, a complete episode guide, and a carefully organized presentation of the facts.

When Walt Disney died in 1966, many predicted that it might be the end of Walt Disney Productions, but Walt had a number of ideas and concepts that lasted well into the next decade. He also left behind a well-established group of workers that hoped to continually answer the question, 'What would Walt do?' with more magical creations that would dazzle and delight. With this book, author and historian Mark Arnold explores the major accomplishments of Walt Disney Productions during the years 1966-1985, paying particular attention to their theatrical film output, but also discussing the various new theme park attractions and the TV shows produced during that period.
