If you, like me, are happily retired and grew up loving so many 1960s TV series, Thriftbooks has a great way to catch up on all the backstories while you watch the old shows and movies on dozens of cable and streaming services.
Averaging less than $6 each, usually with free shipping, I've read so many used books from them that the USPS probably has a dedicated employee working exclusively from there to here. Just a sample:
"My Happy Days In Hollywood" by Garry Marshall
"Back To the Batcave" by Adam West
"My Lucky Life In and Out of Show Business" by Dick Van Dyke
"Keep Moving! And Other Tips and Truths About Aging" by Dick Van Dyke
"The Elephant In Hollywood" by Michael Caine
"The Godfather Companion" by Peter Biskind
"Johnny Carson" by Henry ("Bombastic") Bushkin
"King of the Night" by Laurence Leamer
"Leading With My Chin" by Jay Leno
"Pretty, Pretty, Pretty Good" by Larry David
"Your Movie Sucks" by Roger Ebert
"Drama" by John Lithgow
"On Directing Film" by David Mamet
"Superman: Serial To Cereal" by Gary Grossman
...and dozens more. A great feature of Thriftbooks is their description of each book's condition; it's right on. They also have a buyback program. https://tinyurl.com/45b3ec4k
