Old Theaters - Artwork of Anthony Ross

2010 may be the hottest year on record. Many of us had days this spring that felt like summer. Some in the Gulf Coast are braving the oil slick just to cool off. Those not near an ocean or lake will be hitting the pool. There is another favorite pastime to beat the heat. It doesn't even require getting wet. Watching movies. Movie theaters were among the first industries to install air conditioning. When the heat was bad it probably didn't matter what was showing. Most of the beautiful old theaters are a thing of the past. The multiplexes and megaplexes of today are air condition but they just aren't the same. The neon lights and Art Deco style of the old cinema is still present in the artwork of Anthony Ross. I was amazed to find some of his reproductions at Zazzle.com.

50's Science Fiction Movie-Earth vs The Spider

Hello everyone. I must admit that I am behind on getting Retro Town up and running. The latest wrench in the works has given me an idea for my first post. Sorry it will be such a short one. It seems a spider eggs have hatched in my room. They are crawling on me as I type! It doesn't look like I will get much sleep tonight. Actually it is already after 2:30 in the morning.

Anyway something hit me as I was brushing off another tiny spider. No not it's mother. One thing that screams Retro is a Cheesy Horror/Sci-fi movie. So for now ere is a trailer from the 1958 film Earth VS The Spider (a.k.a The Spider and Earth vs. the Giant Spider). I hope you enjoy it.

send out electronic newsletters and to enable users to participate in

Retro Town Disclaimer

Retro Town

You may or may not know that the Federal Trade Commission has revised it guides governing endorsements and testimonials. What does this do for you? Part of these changes are meant to hold the online community to the same standards as the offline community. As long as this is done fairly I see it as a good thing. Here is more information on FTC Endorsement Guide for your convenience.

I actually welcome this call to transparency. It gives me an opportunity to let you see into my character. For you younger readers I am talking about how I roll.

There are two reasons this blog exist. 1.) To showcase the designs of Zazzle shopkeepers, mine included. 2.) To make a living for my family. Due to health issues I am unable to work outside the home. Rather than apply for disability I am trying to earn money working from home. I will always do so in an ethical manner. I know what it is like to be ripped off and deceived. I will not do that to someone else.

Does this blog make money? I surely hope it will. As of today, May 19 2010, it has not. What are the methods used to monetize this blog? The products you see on Zazzler have special links. Those links contain information that identifies me as an affiliate. If you were to click those links and purchase a product I may receive a commission. Other affiliate links are also placed within the text of my post. Not all links I place on this blog are affiliate links. It would be nice if they were though.

Another way I may make money from this blog is advertisements. If I do place an ad on my blog I will do so in hopes of making money from it. Placing a product or advertisement on this or any blog or website does not mean I have made an endorsement. I does not even mean I have been paid. I would like to be paid to show advertisements :). If I am it still will not constitute an endorsement. If I do endorse anything I will clearly say so.

Do I receive free products or money in exchange for testimonials or reviews? As of May 19 2010 I have not. I am not above accepting freebies however. If you want to send me a free product or money please feel free to do so. I will be happy. If you want a testimonial or review in exchange you may not necessarily be happy with what I have to say. Whatever I do say will be my opinion. Also I will not be obligated to return any such products or money.
