For Sale FS: Vivitar Series 1 and a brand new identity all for only...

[Jon Goodman]

peanuts.

Just imagine for a moment what Jimmy Hoffa would have paid for a new identity. I'll bet it would have been quite a lot of money, and because of that I kind of wish he was an APUG member to see this offer. And he may be one, you know? They never found his body, did they? So, psst, Jimbo. Yes, you. Here you have a chance to get a brand new identity and some useful stuff in the deal.

First, for $5 plus the actual cost of shipping, you're going to get one Hoya 67mm Skylight (1B) filter. And also for that fin, you're going to get a 67mm Tiffen Sky 1-A filter. And that's not all...you're also going to get a slip-on Vivitar Series 1 lens cap that will work with either of these filters. And a change in identity? You betcha. Just take a look at the anonymous fellow below. In the first image, he's wearing the two filters as 1967 type sunglasses...and it would be very easy to mistake you for Sonny Bono, wouldn't it? Sure it would. What do you think Cher would say about that (wink, wink, nod, nod)? In the second image, he's placed the lens cap over the right filter and...aargh matey, it looks like Captain Sculley there.

Don't wait. You never know when you might need a little bit of cover.

Will you sign the drawing? I'm assuning it is included and certainly worth the $5 by itself. Bill Barber

 

[Jon Goodman]

Yes...I'll be happy to sign it and date it. Isn't that what artists generally do?
Jon

 

[Sirius Glass]

I think that you are pulling a fast one, by using the same drawing twice. 'fess up, man.

 

[lxdude]

Sirius, dude, he's illustrating the amazing transformational effect of a few simple items on a single subject. Sort of like how a dress transforms you.

 

[Sirius Glass]

Personally I do not wear dresses. Are you still doing that? Jus' askin'

 

[lxdude]

Sorry, Sirius, my mistake. That was a skirt I saw you in. As for noting your sartorial proclivities, yes I'm still doing that.

 

[Sirius Glass]

Not me! I do not wear skirts either.

 

[lxdude]

Oh my god! You were the dude in the panties.

 

[Sirius Glass]

No, that was you. You were drunk as a skunk and when you saw yourself in the mirror you freaked out.

 

[Jon Goodman]

What makes you think the drawings are the same?

PS...I think these may be spoken for...
Jon

 

[lxdude]

Oh..uh, hi Jon. Umm... Sorry for disrupting your thread...

 

[Jon Goodman]

Not a problem at all amigo. Glad to see people having some fun.

Speaking of identity, one alert APUG member sent me this link. This is great stuff! It looks like Cher may have had an alter ego back in the 1960s:

[lxdude]

Yes! Inga Rumph- the queen of German R&B. Which sounds like a joke, I know, but she's good. This was very early in her career.

 

[wblynch]

If still available I will buy it. I actually need this (who'd a thunk?)

[Jon Goodman]

Sorry it is gone now.

[one90guy]

Drat I wanted the original signed drawing.

 

[Jon Goodman]

What were you willing to pay? I could do another self-portrait if you're interested. Maybe I could also do one of Jimmy (Jimbo) Hoffa. Did anyone think my mention of him 3 days before the AP story about the latest search was interesting timing?
Jon

 

[wblynch]

Sorry it is gone now.
Jon

Oh no, and I am in need of a new identity.

Will have to move faster next time.

 

[Sirius Glass]

Jimmy Hoffa is pulling a Sadam Hussein! Jimmy is hiding in a covered hole in the ground until it is safe to come out.

 

[wblynch]

More like Al Capone's Vault

Oh yeah, he's down there with Elvis, isn't he?
Jon

Oh, for anyone needing a new identity, please watch the "anything goes" section...soon, maybe tomorrow you may get a chance.
