Jimi Hendrix' "Hackensack Blues" LP

http://xrl.us/HackensackBlues

Seller's description:

This album is very clean with only very light wear, visible only if held up to a light. Nice shiny vinyl. Cover is in good condition as well, with only the beginnings of some ring wear at the very top and bottom. No split seams.

The only surface noise is at the beginning of Drivin’ South and during parts of Get Out Of My Life. Otherwise, a pretty clean playing record. I’ve not attempted to clean this disc with fluids.

There is an excellent explanation of these recordings on the “Drivin’ South” album review at: http://pagesperso-orange.fr/hendrix.guide/before.htm

OK, kids - here's your chance! This is worth it just for the cover. This should be framed and hanging in City Hall. Since that'll never happen, let me be the first to suggest that it hang in the Hackensack History Museum/Cultural Center or whatever the Masonic Hall becomes.

UNDERWOOD !!!   There's that name again in connection with Hackensack.
I wonder if there is any family connection between this illegal booze and the Underwood Corporation that leased the city's parking lot on State Street, near Camden Street.

HIGHLY doubtful:

Seller's Description:

Up for Auction is one Kodachrome slide of Maywood, New Jersey's 1938 Ahrens Fox, Ex-Hackensack NJ This is an extra in my collection, selling to put money back into the hobby .   Copyright retained by seller.


I just found this and it closes tonight at 10:31pm. It's got 5 bids and it's up to $15.50 at the moment, so if you want it, hurry. You can't sell any prints or make any money from it without working something out with the seller because he retains the copyright, but you can make prints for yourself or to give away to friends.

The seller is Hackensack firefighter Mike Martinelli - a real good guy. If you like firetruck images from all over, he's your man.

This is the same truck as shown above in this thread and I will also post this in the "Online/Auctions/Local Images" thread.

Would this be between the YMCA and Sears? Hard to believe.

Unused/undated.

if Mr. Leafe can dress as a Great Horned Owl and sit in a tree

Been there, done that.






In exchange for this childhood photo of me, Ol' Homer has agreed , in return, to pose in this costume:





That oughta be a real hoot! Can't wait to see THAT post!


Because of all the requests, I took my magic cellcam to Borg's Woods very early this morning and found a whole variety of owls there:






I even found one with justwatching's red fox:






As I was leaving, I captured a silhouette of the deer and turkeys against the light of the rising sun:






That's it.........I'm done. I hope you're all happy now, because I'm not going back there until you all buy me dinner at the grand opening of the new Joint in the Woods Cafe.

Bon appétit!

The real challenge at Borg's is to photograph the red fox. And the Blue-Ribbon Award goes to whoever can photograph a 20-lb Great-Horned Owl. I wonder if Mr. Labrosse or Mr. Leafe is up to that challenge

Lemme get this straight: you want me to photograph a Great Horned Owl and then ask it to step on a scale and that it better tip 20 pounds or else I don't get..........a ribbon?

I'll pass. It's all yours, John.

And, yes, it would be a real challenge to photograph Redd Foxx, who's been dead for 18 years.
