Article-I.D.: nscs.168 Posted: Mon Jun 21 09:59:57 1982 Received: Thu Jun 24 01:59:51 1982 These books are not out of print. They are 'The Limerick' by G. Legman and (I think) 'The Limerick II'. A good source for these books is Publishers Clearing House - a mail discounter that operates out of Chicago. Once you are on their mailing list you get a catalog every couple of months. BTW these books have good indices -- this makes it interesting to look at limericks on the net (or elsewhere) that are touted as new and original and find their quite similar counterparts from 1910 or so. Before I encountered these books I had thought that my days with the Cal Marching Band were the fountainhead of new and exciting limericks by the dozen. Now I find that even the young girl from Milpitas was previously discovered.
