Saturday I found for $0.50 a fine copy of the 1967 softcover of
McLuhan's book. Not worth anything like the hardcover firsts, but
still scarce.

You could have got a roll of Charmin for that price.

I would have to sell a lot of Charmin for what this could get retail.

I wasn't referring to the mercantile. I was suggesting that you'd be
better off wiping your ass with it than reading it.


I must admit that back in the 60s, a two minute summary of
the book was all one needed.
