PRICE: $30.00 Post Paid
US shipping via media mail.
Foreign orders or multiple copies please inquire for cost.
Send orders to Phyllisweinberg63@gmail.com
A Paypal invoice will be sent to you.


Phyllis Weinberg, Bob Garcia and Doug Ellis have produced a tribute book to Bob Weinberg.

The incredible Doug Klauba painted the cover, taking his inspiration from Bob's favorite artist, Virgil Finlay.

The book collects various articles by Bob -- primarily his 13 part autobiography of life as an art collector -- as well as tributes by a whole host of folks.
It truly was a group effort by a lot of people, so thanks to all who contributed.

And yes, Eery is spelled that way on the cover intentionally -- it's the way that Weird Tales spelled it on their covers.
