Time for more Space Ghost Coast-to-Coast links, both from the ghost planet mailing list I belong to.

The Kooks Museum has been “dismantled, compacted, frozen, laminated and reassembled” for your viewing pleasure. As it’s laminated, no new additions will be made to the museum. In its place is Book Happy, a print magazine with some on-line content about collecting weird books.
