Diagram Of Womens Bits



I searched for days but there was nothing to do ... I just can not find it ...

; The registers of Zagor I reserve a double surprise with the reading of No 187 ( The Return of the Vampire), to whom I mentioned in my previous post.
I had been invited to return to my first love comic after years away, and I found myself not only a fascinating story to read together drawings by Ferri Gallienus a high level, but it also seemed that fortune had decided to reward my "backfire" on the cover of No 187, in fact, stood out this message:
"If you meet these QUESTIONS will receive an ZAGOR KEY HOLDER."
Once again, the publisher had felt the need to gauge public opinion to try to improve their "product" and so, after almost ten years after the first investigation , addressed directly to readers have their opinion "on certain issues ," read the message, " that interest us much. "

This second referendum, compared to the first, had a greater number of questions (6 instead of 4) and its formulation is more complex and engaging .
The questions focused on the best stories, what was worse, the adventures of the supporting actors on other series of the publishing house on new series that would see the light and, finally, on advertising.
But the truly extraordinary event was this: to all those who have answered the questions would be sent , a choice of Zagor a keychain or a Tex or one of Mister No!
Unlike the first referendum, I have no written record of the answers I gave, but even in this case, cherish the memories sharp enough ...
You must keep in mind that the first two applications were for the last five years of publications Ed ... I did not read the series now for two years! Could, therefore, refer only to the years '76 / '78 ... Me also the quarry, with some small cars trick ...
For example, in response to the question of the best books, I remember that, next to the magician Kandrax and Tigre! , I indicated that I was reading the story at this time ( The Return of the Vampire), although it was not published until mid-adventure, but what can you do, the first two stories of Zagor against Rakosi Bela are among my favorites! !


In response to the question of the worst books, next to Fortress Smirnoff and The mysterious knight , also pointed The Pride of China, for the simple fact that it was the story with which I had broken my collection ...


So, my opinions on the stories, for better or for worse, were not just "objective"!

On the third question, I do not remember all the characters I laid between them ... But certainly there were the Vampire ( off course), Hellingen , Trampy and Bat Batterton .




When asked about the other heroes of the publishing house, said Tex which preferred and which Little Ranger character for me at that time totally charmless ...


Among the new kinds of preferences, hypothetical series that the publisher had in mind to launch, I indicated the western and fantasy .
Finally, as to whether or affixed on my reply was simply: yes! Compiled
my beautiful set of answers and clearly indicate that the key ring I wanted was to Zagor, all in a sealed envelope and sent it to the address on the bottom of the back cover, namely: DAIM PRESS Via Buonarroti 38, 20145 Milano .
And, as had happened nine years earlier with the Indian Circus register , I waited ...

Within a few weeks, a Saturday morning, I found in the mailbox of a small color brown envelope which contained "Daim Press" as an indication of the sender, was a bag of those packed with cellophane and closing pre-glued ... I went running up the six flights of stairs that separated me from my apartment and once at home I opened the envelope ... that was desperately EMPTY!
You can imagine my disappointment! I could not think that the publisher might have failed to insert the key ... the reason for the empty envelope could only be one: someone post office (or whomever else) had stolen the content!
After I racked my brains on how to remedy this small tragedy, "I saw no other solution than to take my portable typewriter Antares and throw down a letter, addressed to the publisher, explaining what had happened ... naturally hope that this would somehow resolve the issue. In fact I had not even dared to think that I was sent to ask for another key, fearing that someone might suspect that the mine was a lie, intended to have only a Keychain Instead ... more ...
But after a few weeks here that I was delivered an envelope similar to the previous, but this time containing the coveted key ring!
The first thing I did was to replace the car key in the Family (a Fiat 127 ) with that of Zagor just received, and since then, for thirteen years (until 1994 when I replaced it with one taken in my pilgrimage to the Holy Land, depicting the Cross of Jerusalem, which I still use today) so I used it.
course, although he was now worn out and had lost nearly all the "lacquer" blue, the jealously kept it in the drawer of my bedside table.

Now some of you will wonder why someone who likes to call "photojournalists Zagoria" has not yet posted a photograph of this keychain ...
legitimate question and the answer ... is italicized in the sentence that I put on top of this post ...
After my marriage, the key was in my parents' house and when (after death) freed the apartment, I put together with many other things ended up in the garage and the attic of my current home.
But when I wanted to "exhume" to photograph it and post it in the blog ... I searched for days but there was nothing to do ... I just can not find it!
Patience ... It is certainly not lost and I am convinced that someday, when I least I'll wait, my keychain Zagor will jump out of some dusty box and tell me: "Here I am."
