For Sale (rare)

This is a RARE issue of the most sought after of all Newsy Vents newsletters - the 48 page tribute to Edgar Bergen issue.  Jan/Feb 1979, Volume 35, Issue No 1.    


Contents include: Edgar Bergen Biography, Tributes from fellow vents, Eulogies, vintage article reprints, historical facts, radio reviews, many photos including the famous "last show" photo by Mary Ellen Mark/Lee Gross.  And more.  Of all the issues of Newsy Vents we published over a period of 35 years, I do believe this is still my favorite.  A special issue in honor of a very special person!  The full cover is a reprint of an original pointillism painting by artist and ventriloquist, Dick Weston.  This issue (actually a book) is in mint condition and for sale now:  http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=290654133611
