Stuff Bully Little Stuffed Kitty Pryde Got: Lots of great used records!
John and I went today to the excellent Radio-Active Records (highly recommended if you're in the Ft. Lauderdale area) and picked up lots of cool LPs for his (re)growing collection! An' I helped!
We are mostly trying to re-assemble his previously discarded college record collection.


These record albums can also serve as cool backdrops for your thriller movie about Giant Stuffed Kittens! (Giant Stuffed Kitten not included)
In conclusion: long-playing records, won't you?

This post was suggested by faithful reader and frequent commenter Blam, who's provided a lot of date references in comics that I'll spotlight throughout 2023 in this series. Blam also knows a lot about DC letterers and I wonder if he can clear up the "?" credit on this one!
Thanks, Blam!
