Make Ufology Philately - Magonia

Our Stamp of Approval goes to John Rimmer's review of Luis R. Gonzalez' An Alien in My Mailbox, a book about postage stamps with UFO and sci-fi themes. The book is pricey, though it appears a B/W paperback version is 1/3rd the charge for what Rimmer describes as a "beautifully produced" volume. As to what's "New" in numismatics, Alice Gibbs says a Michigan Man Discovers 'Extraterrestrial' Coin in Roll of Quarters. This article also highlights a fascinating but little-known part of American history in "hobo nickels." UFOs and popular music could constitute its own field of study, and Mick McStarkey adds another famous name to that mix with Rolling Stones Guitarist Keith Richards Claims to Have Seen UFOs. Not only that; Keith once said "UFOs were landing frequently at his Redlands estate in West Sussex"! And for another collision between UFOs and the musical arts, try Roswell - Reina del Cid and Toni Lindgren. Out of a ten-day detention at the town due to their own vehicle mishap, these two artists have created a funny and well-played homage to its most famous claim to fame. (WM)
