Might be worth hitting up Jeff Gerstmann as he is the nexus of 90s hip hop and hyper specific gaming trivia.

The green 1967 World Book Encyclopedia Volume 19 U-V. I have the rest of it, and can't find it on ebay or abe books and it's driving me nuts not having the final volume. There are a couple different 1967 editions, white, blue, red, and green, and mine is the green one. Not sure of the difference between the colors other than the color itself. (There is currently an incomplete set on ebay right now... missing the same volume I'm missing)

There was a fantasy book series I read back in the late 80s where the protagonist uses a sword and, I think, wore a special gauntlet. The first book starts in an underground city that is supported by ancient machinery that nobody remembers how to fix. The machinery is breaking down and at the end of the first book he figures out how to escape to the world above.

I’m looking for a short story. I can’t remember the title or the author but I guess it took place in the future. The main character was taking a walk down the street at night while everyone was inside watching tv. He gets pulled over by a cop for acting suspicious, not watching tv like everyone else, and we find out at the end the cop was a robot. Any idea what this might be?

In high school (I think) the story in our textbook was accompanied by a highly detailed painting (definitely not a photo) of the dashboard of a 1970s or 80s cop car, parked or driving down a street at night. It looked cool and I'd like to see it again

There was a page or a blog or something that exclusively posted pictures of spiders together with chunks of bismuth and I think it was called just "Bismuth And Spiders" and I can't find any trace of it and I'm pretty sure I didn't dream it

I'm looking for a video that was posted somewhere on this site, (yospos I think), of a guy playing drums very fast with music from a video game. I cannot remember what game it was but I'm almost certain it was an SNES game. I know that's not a whole lot to go on but that is all I can remember about it.

Mister Speaker posted:A movie or TV episode with this alien creature or something, possibly a robot, that's disguised in a trenchcoat and hat, like an old film noir detective look. It has glowing eyes but otherwise no visible face, and it consumes people by opening the trenchcoat and enveloping them in it, vibrating and shaking back and forth, ultimately turning its victims into goo that pours out at its feet. Was it PBS kids show Ghostwriters?

I actually found it on my own just yesterday. I watched a bunch of his stuff and it blew my mind to realize he's not playing along with the music, he's got triggers on his set that play the notes in sequence as he hits the drums. It's way way way cooler than I remembered.

Hey guys, I've been helped before here in this thread so hopefully someone here knows something about this kind of stuff. I am looking for high resolution (doesn't have to be nuts, but higher resolution than this) versions of these Czechoslovakian posters from the 60s. I have a high enough resolution one of the Orange one, but I still can't find the others. I've attempted AI based upscaling to make them clearer so I could do a reverse image search on google but didn't get any results aside from the orange one. I believe they are from Czechoslovakia in the 1960s.  Here's the orange one if this helps ring any bells.

I had seen that years ago in a hotel and I guess just assumed it was Poltergeist since it's a spooky television set. Thanks! While Videodrome certainly matches the “gloved hand with static,” could you have been mixing in the parents from “Stay Tuned?” https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105466/?ref_=vp_back I must find this movie and rewatch it My white whale is a kids cartoon show, mid to late 80’s in Western Canada. I remember it as a sci-fi fantasy with two kids travelling between worlds and/or dimensions with at least one alien companion. I remember it being fairly serious and a Quality comparable to Funanimation but maybe European if that makes sense. Also they had a flying ship that looked like a grey, boxy Delorean. The main reason this show stuck in my head was that it ended, the kids found their way back home and they have to part ways with their companion(s??). Source most likely would have been early Ytv or CBC. I have been over the vastly improved show listings for both of them and found nothing. Also tried checking Animation studio catalogs which is why I think it might have been made outside North America. This has bothered me for decades so if anything pops in your head please let me know Edit: going over art styles again and now I realize I need to include everything from 60’s onward. It’s art style could have been similar to early Space ghost which came out in 1966 HAmbONE fucked around with this message at 09:52 on Sep 30, 2020 |

GutBomb posted:Holy poo poo thank you. How did you find these? Do you speak some sort of Czech/Slovak language? I spent hours looking for these over the weekend and only found a crappier version of #2. Nope, I used to work on research requests at the local museum so I've had a bunch of practice - luckily the requests here don't usually involve reading actual books or scanning microfilm archives because as fun as it was I haven't really got the time for that anymore. Reverse image search of your example brought me to the poster shop which had small previews of two of them and context/translations of their content. Did some searches based on the captions (hoping to find an archive of Czechoslovakia's Department of Propaganda and Agitation) and found other probably-older copies of the store with the same captions, one of which had broken image links, so tried that in the Wayback Machine and discovered its previews were larger; pure luck there but it worked out. As for the other one, that popped up easily in Yandex - which has an unusually good image search, and I wouldn't be surprised if it surfaces international content more often than Google does - which led me to that Czech gallery/musem/whatever. The fourth poster, I have no idea what the topic or text is, reverse-searching brings up endless children's drawings, and I don't know anything about the artistic style to narrow it down, so I gave up quickly on that one. Yandex and Bing image search are handy because you can selectively search for parts of a submitted image, you don't have to crop before you submit it. If Google has that feature I've never noticed it. For instance, if this link lasts, you should be able to spot your Brno poster as the fourth result.
