Ah-Haarrr! It be that toim of the yearrr again, when those of a surrt'un disposition make some effort to talk loik a demented West-countryman, in the purrr'soot of sound'in loik a poirrate! Thankfully, yer land-lub'in deck-swarrbs, this nun-sense only gets a paragraaf orrr two, and this be one uv-em!
One of the seen-elsewhere shots announcing
International Talk Like a Pirate Day, a right old mix, and all seen here piecemeal, in the past, on past pirate days! So a bit of a 'what can you spot' job, and it makes for a decent intro' shot!
Brian Berke sent a bunch of stuff to the Blog the other day, and among them was this framed pair of Ron Embleton artworks, watched-over by
Captain Pugwash, who seem to inveigle his way into every
ITLAPD these days! From the page size, I'm guessing the right-hand image is either from
Look & Learn, or
Tell Me Why?
World of Wonder was a smaller 'standard' or modern format, the other two were quite big. With the left-hand image cropped out of that issues cover?
Three sets of the
Supreme / SP-Toys pirates, seemingly as a generic (there may have been something on the back of the cards?), similar to other we've seen, but interesting for the re-use of
Supreme's Wild West sets' accessories!
A set of Pirates from
Accoutrements, more on these in a later post, but for now a set of four forty-millimetre filibusters, in a carded blister.
There was more in the 'mixed intro' post, but thing's got moved, so that's it, but we're off on another regular round-up of all things pirate, which have come in over the last 12-months or so, we might even get some of the stuff which has been sitting here for several years now, out!
