I got this super swell email from a reader we’ll just call “Jim” who wishes to remain anonymous.
“Flipping back through your archives, I saw the 1978 Sears Catalog entry that mentioned a Kiss costume in reference to a button down shirt.
I can do you one better on this. From only a short time after that catalog came out, I have a picture of myself IN a Kiss Button Down Shirt. As I recall, I got beat up slightly less than you over that shirt.
Feel free to use the picture, but don’t attach any name to it.. I was tortured enough over that shirt!
On a separate note, I’m still quite unhappy that you do not yet have Audrey Hepburn in the Babe Gallery.
That is all. Carry on.”
Thanks, Jim! That is totally fantastic!
