Old RDs? I want! (My oldest issue is from 1948, but the bulk are from the
late 60s and early 70s)
Wodehouse wrote about how he feared the RD because another "Most
Unforgettable Character Somebody Ever Met" might jump out at him. They had
a mind-set stuck in the regressive '40s, but they were usually informative
and the ads are still a delight. (Anybody remember "To market, to market,
goes New Adipocere"?)

Around these images, and cling:
The notion of some infinitely gentle,
Infinitely suffering thing"*
