I am nearly 95% funded for my new book, Flong Time, No See, a collection of what (I think) are charming and quirky essays that weave together the history of obscure printing practices and working people’s lives. The campaign ends Tuesday! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/glennf/flong-time-no-see?ref=aj65aw

Here's the Incomparable debrief about my Jeopardy experience, recorded just after I got back, with fellow players @glennf and @dmoren

Triple J on 'Jeopardy!' with Jennings (The Incomparable Mothership 809)

Jason was on “Jeopardy!” Now he breaks the experience down with the help of two former “Jeopardy!” champions, Glenn Fleishman and Dan Moren.

The Incomparable
For any pledge for a physical object, you can add regular or signed copies of Six Centuries of Type & Printing and signed copies of How Comics Are Made. These two books and the one in crowdfunding all complement each other in covering different aspects of history.
At the supporter level, you get signed copies of Flong Time, No See and two of my other books (and two ebooks) plus, either
• Letterpress-printed Walt Whitman folio
• Letterpress-printed SHOUTY CAPS chapter of a 2017 book
As part of the campaign, you can get the book (ebook, print, signed), but also:
• A sheet of Sunday Peanuts flong, the molds used to create plates from which the comics were printed
• A unique re-creation of flong using a Bill Griffith–authorized Zippy the Pinhead comic
