1949rif. 2602001New Jersey: Privately Published 1949. Soft cover. Very Good. q. Carbon copy for family member. Wrappers. 35 one-sided double-spaced pages plus 12 pages of maps 6pp and magazine pictures 6pp. Foldout map of United States with author's traced route to California and back to New Jersey. On November 9 1948 a daughter driving and her mom left Carrobell Farm Asbury Warren County New Jersey for San Francisco. They drove a friend's new Chrysler convertible that he wanted in California. The same friend had a car available when they arrived for them to drive back! As this was the late fall of the year they took southern routes both directions the outward bound through Virginia Tennessee etc. down through Arkansas northern Texas New Mexico and Arizona. The return took them farther south through the cities of Tucson El Paso Laredo St. Charles and directly east to cross the panhandle of Florida before turning north. They returned home on February 20 1949 three and one-half months and 9045 miles after leaving home! The author provide two statistical summaries outward and return of elapsed time miles driven hours spent driving running time average miles per day average speed total gasoline average mpg average per day cost of lodging and cost of meals total cost and average cost per day. While there were no jaw-dropping misadventures on the trip the account is extremely well-written and sufficiently detailed if condensed to make for pleasurable reading. The carbon manuscript is clean in the sense that there are very few strike-outs etc. The author does not identify herself; there was no need as this was done for family. Two photos at the end are apparently of the family farmhouse in New Jersey. Here is what AI has provided about Carrobell Farm. Carrobell Farm is a historic farm located in Asbury Warren County New Jersey. . Origins: The land was part of a larger tract where Joseph Turner and William Allen both from Philadelphia built two iron forges in the 1740s. . Superintendent's Residence: The main house at Carrobell Farm was constructed as the residence for the superintendent of the nearby Union Forge. . Inheritance and Ownership Changes: In 1784 Elizabeth Oswald Chew Joseph Turner's niece and second wife of Benjamin Chew inherited the farm. Later in 1833 Charles Carhart purchased the property from Samuel Chew. This historical information suggests that Carrobell Farm played a role in the iron industry and has been a part of the Asbury landscape for centuries witnessing changes in ownership and potentially evolving agricultural practices over time.

Cover shows various comic characters Micky Mouse Denis the Menace Lord Snooty Desperate Dan etc. Tony Bennett writes online at John May's The Generalist blog : In the late 60s and early 70s I was working with a publisher and distributor called Unicorn Bookshop run by Bill Butler. Originally in Brighton we moved to a farm in West Wales where we were growing our own food and had a printing press in the barn. Unicorn as well as publishing books on self-sufficiency cannabis and poetry was importing Underground comics from the USA. This really sparked my interest in comics partly for the wide and weird content and partly because they were creator-owned. It even encouraged me and a friend to draw and print our own self-indulgent heavily derivative comicÊTrip Strip which we distributed at festivals. Very good indeed.
