The Collected Bil Keane Watch
Published mid-1994 with an initial run of 50 copies, most of those going to contributors. After that it became a print-on-demand publication for a year or two.
Basically it was simply every "Bil Keane Watch" from City Limits Gazette collected and presented as an individual set of books. Five volumes to be exact! The volume number designation was indicated by the amount of nostrils on the cover.
There were a couple things in this set not originally presented in CLG. One of them was "The Last Bil Keane Watch," which was an article in Subliminal Tattoos # 1 (1994).
Although I did offer this as a print-on-demand back in the 90s, I'm hesitant to scan and post things with this here newfangled electronic gizmo without permission from the contributors.
Here's the list. If your name is on this lineup and you don't mind me reprinting your writing, let me know and maybe I'll post a sampler of this set on this blog in the near or distant future:
Mark Campos, Randy Scott, Wayno, Ted Bolman, Bruce Chrislip, Troy Hickman, Bruce Bolinger, Clark Dissmeyer, Jeff Nicholson, Jeffrey Kipper, Maximum Traffic, Mike Lee, Ben Adams, Sean Bieri, M. Stengl, Bill Donahue, Steve Lafler, Ricardo Nancy McJacksonstein, Jeff Zenick, Randy H. Crawford, Jeff Snee, Brad Foster, Russell Rose, Bryan Willis, Matt Love, Andrew Roller, "Thad Willis," Kel Crum, Gary Usher, Dusty Rhoads, Jeremy Pinkham, Ted Delorme, Tom Jansson, Asa Sparks, Ken Clinger, Michael Drummond, William Dockery, Greg Stomberg, and Bruce Sweeney. Apologies to anyone I've missed.

ReplyDeleteMan, I miss the Keane Watch...I used to laugh until my pores were bleeding...
You can scan an dpost anything from me in the collection, no problem!
ReplyDeleteFor you completists I just stumbled on the fact 20 copies were printed in 1994 as a Special Fandom House Edition.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely, use whatever it was that I contributed... at almost 20 years in the past, I'm not sure what it was, exactly!
