G'day Oz-cobs, Thanks to insomnia, whisky and a bad bout of nostalgia, I trawled the Net last night. Among other things, I wamted to find some Ken Maynard cartoons from the Australian Post of the illustrious Ettamogah Pub - alas, I didn't find a single sample of his 40 or so years of pen-scratching...;( Howsomever, I did find snapshots of several 'replica' Ettamogah Pubs that have been built in recent years. IMHO the 'original' at Albury, where Ken lived should be the ONLY one - trust the Gold Coast to bet in on the act - and I see there's a franchise to build 'em world-wide - grumble, mutter... Anyway.... can any of you point me to the original B&W cartoons? Mumble... now I'll have to go and look for Saltbush Bill and Wichety's Tribe - great stuff, weren't it! And turn off all those blasted searchlights on the front of your road-train - I don't want to get scorched at this distance!!!!! Cheers - Sam - in Kiwiland
