Fw: [Groop] Displaying Groo Stuff

[EUGENE PHILLIP]

G. G.,
  You're lucky you can focus on one "roll model".  I've been a MAD fan for
50 years and narrowed my focus down to the shrinking number of real MAD
artists.  So my bust of GROO sits next to busts of Alfred E. Neuman, and the
statues of the original Crypt Keeper, Old Witch, Vault Keeper, and HBO's
version of the Crypt Keeper.
  My GROO collector cards sit in an album next to the Crypt Keeper Cards,
MAD Lime Rock Cards, and MAD Fleer cards/stickers.  All the rest of the
stuff fills boxes stacked to the ceiling in the basement.
