Sixties part two!
Nobody celebrated the sixties like Archie and the gang! Join in the fun, and relive the most controversial era of the past century!

Come & ride in the Time Machine, to the 60s
Fun, kid-safe, somewhat time-warped. This book is a quick trip to the Sixties, or at least the comics version of that decade.

One writer compared Archie comics to an aquarium. Each fish in the aquarium is distinct & unique, & the fun is watching the combinations & permutations. Each Archie character is distinct, in their own private Riverdale Universe, & the fun is watching them interact.

In this collection, the art reaches about the peak seen in Archie comics. The whole Riverdale Gang looks their very best.
The artists at Archie took great pains to be up-to-date with this era's clothing, & it showed!

And as always, Archie collections are wholesome, family friendly fare. This collection will go over well with most kids, & with most parents & grandparents.

Stories from this "Golden Age" of comics had an "anything goes" quality- perhaps none more so than the freewheeling antics of Archie Andrews and his friends. Now by popular demand, we're pleased to serve up a second helping of 1940s fun and frolics for the many readers who enjoyed the original ARCHIE AMERICANA SERIES: BEST OF THE FORTIES! ... Read more

If Nostalgia is your compelling need....
...then you will enjoy this for about an hour and then pass it around to old - I mean old - friends.
It's kind of like cotton candy -sweet and ephemeral. Good color, okay story selection, you get to know Mr. Andrews, his father.

Love it!
That is all that I have to say... LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!!The artwork is beautiful... I love the classic Archies' drawings... I read them all, now what do I do?

SOME OF ARCHIE'S WACKIEST ADVENTURES!
While the first volume of "The Best of the Forties" concentrated on presenting the first appearances of Archie and the rest of the gang, the second volume is strictly slapstick.All of the stories from this volume are reprinted from Laugh Comics while the first re-printed stories from Pep, and Archie comics.The girls take a bit of a back seat in these dozen stories as Jughead becomes the main co-star.Even Mr. Andrews gets more strip time than Betty and Veronica.The stories are more slapstick, than other Archie stories relying on a lot of physical humor.While maybe not as historically important as the one in volume one, these stories present a side of Archie rarely seen by us baby boomers who were so used to adventures centered on Riverdale High and the ongoing love triangle.In this regard, the stories are less time-sensitive and could easily be dropped into modern times as references to current events of the 40's are kept to a bare minimum.

Among my favorite stories are:

"Mr. Blunk Comes to Town" from Laugh #21.Archie's dad is, of course, a real estate agent and a man named Mr. Blunk comes to town to buy a seemingly worthless plot of land.Unfortunately, Archie takes the contract out on his date by mistake.Through a series of car breakdowns and other mishaps, Mr. Andrews and Archie keep missing each other which turns out to be a good thing as Mr. Andrews soon learns that oil was found on the land and Blunk knew about it all along!

"Go Fly a Kite"from Laugh #23.Archie and Jughead are trying to build a kite and their racket disturbs their fathers.Soon Mr. Andrew and Mr. Jones take over building the kite with disastrous results.

"Double Trouble" From Laugh #25.Archie wonders why the new girl in school, Alice Adams changes from nice to mean to him at the drop of a hat.What Archie doesn't know is that the girls are twins!

"It's a Dog's Life" from Laugh #27.Archie and Jughead agree to bathe Veronica's dog.Jughead grabs hair remover instead of shampoo by mistake resulting in a hairless pooch right before the big dog show!

"Lady Killer" from Laugh #28.Archie decides to start an escort service to earn some extra money.He doesn't want to be recognized as a kid so wears a beard and dark hair to disguise himself.His first customer named "Peaches" turns out to be Miss Grundy!The pair go out to a nightclub and Archie has to dodge Reggie and Veronica who are there as well.

"Nature Boy" from Laugh #36.Archie, Jughead, Betty and Veronica go out on a picnic and in wild slapstick fashion, virtually everything goes wrong from Jughead smashing a cake, to Archie burning the burgers, Betty and Veronica sitting in poison ivy, and Jughead playing with a skunk!

While maybe not as historically important, these stories were very funny and a change to those of us who only knew Archie from the 60's and 70's.

The 'b-sides' from the 1940's
Not quite as fresh as the previous volume - "Archie Americana: Best of the Forties, Book 1," but still a must read for the die-hard Archie afficionado.While Book 1 was lovingly crafted to showcase material with historic value (e.g. - the first appearance of key characters, locations, etc.), Book 2 comes across a bit more lightweight in comparison as the stories seem selected more for the zaniness of its humor and the timeframe that the stories were selected from (1946-1949) seems somewhat narrower.Still, this being Archie comics and all, it still manages to be an enjoyable read all the way through, but do make sure that you read/purchase Book 1 first. ...

The beginings of the Riverdale Gang
Archie, Veronica, Jughead, Betty, Reggie, & the long-suffering Mr Weatherbee. We all know them. But the early versions were often startlingly different, while remaining recognisably our favorite characters. Jughead seems to have changed least, Weatherbee & Archie are tied for the greatest change, & Reggie was originally TWO characters, merged into one! (BTW--Veronica was EVEN BETTER LOOKING!)
Buy this. It's fun, & good reading.

Finally I get to see where...
Finally I get to see where Archie got his start! What a difference from today! Purchase this book, and see where it all started!

Archie is great in any decade!
I loved the Archie comics as a kid and still enjoy them today.I was so glad to see how it began and he's basically the same kid today!

Everything's Archie
I was quite excited when the Archie Americana series was launched, and this is the volume that started it all. Best of the 'Forties Volume Two is sometimes regarded as more slapstick, but I find it the other way 'round. This volume, with an introduction by Stephen King is a lot better than volume two, although understandably Archie fans may want all of this reasonably priced series. I also found Best of the 'Fifties Volume one to be outstanding.

The archival nature of this series makes it perfect for Archie one-offs. My favorite comic was Archie's Mad House, which would seem ideal for this series, as would the Pureheart the Powerful comics or the Man from Riverdale episodes with Archie as a secret agent. Archie has been a hit wherever he's gone, including radio, TV, comics, books and toys. These archival volumes fill in some of the missing history, and aptly illustrate why for fans over the last six decades, everything's Archie.

Much ado about nothing.
I have to admit that I was very disappointed with this book. It was interesting to see how the characters developed and changed, but there were only twelve short comics in the whole book! When I first saw these books, I expected them to be crammed with comics- at least as many as in a double digest, but what I got was a flimsy, thin volume with a depressingly-few number of stips in it. If you're dyed-in-the-wool fan who wants every Archie comic ever produced, buy it, but for average fans, you're better off sticking with the digests. ... Read more

Product Description
When a mysterious manila envelope reached the hands of Henry "Milt" Reeves, no one could have anticipated the story that waited inside. Enclosed he found a manuscript written half a century earlier and yellowed with age. Each fragile page unfolded the first-person story of a trip Dorothy Chapman Saunders had taken to Mexico in 1948 and 1949 with her husband and seasoned ornithologist, George, to conduct field surveys of waterfowl and white-winged doves for the U.S. government.

In Chico, George, the Birds, and Me, Saunders adeptly describes the birds they saw and the survey work they did. She also charts the other details of their journey as they traveled in a jeep they dubbed "Chico." A gifted naturalist, Saunders offers an engaging, lively account that reflects her education, experiences, and many capabilities as a traveler, newspaper reporter, journalist, marksman, pilot, and scientist. Her observations will give new insight to those interested in natural history, ornithology, adventure, travel in Mexico, and women in science. ... Read more
