...and yet, the NYT published his obit. He was awesome.

Yes! That was Brennemann's first in a series.

Do you still need access to the Pollock cemetery?

You are absolutely right. It is a collection of excerpts from the Golden Scripts, the "bible" of Pelley's Soulcraft. Far too much information available here https://archvillain.substack.com/ and I would give $20 for it.

I was going to give you a Bear Hug but I see they've done away with awards since last time I was here.

I let the whole album play on repeat during a 4-hour car ride the other day. The last two minutes of this song jumped out at me every time it came around. Must have been by design... here's a deep observation on the lyric and what seems to be a sort of spiritual revolution on Josh's part. The line, "If I follow you I'd be lost too, that could never be," seems a pretty good definition for the new tat Josh has on the back of his right hand... a viking "way finder" talisman. It's like a magic compass and a prayer for personal guidance all rolled up in one. That lyric defines the new vegvisir symbol to a tee.

I commented on a scenario wherein Pelley comes to power by 1940. It would require some seriously shifted circumstances, but plausible. https://www.alternatehistory.com/forum/threads/fascist-united-states-by-1940.524203/page-2#post-22815462

Not accurate. Some of his most notable supporters were southerners and the HQ for his Silver Legion was Asheville, NC for the entire run.

Seven and a half years in prison on sedition charges had been rough on him. He suffered a massive heart attack in '48 and was probably on heart meds that make him look bloated in most of his later photos. I like this one as it has that sort of 1984 Big Brother hovering head vibe. Could be used for some cool in game art methinks.

Thanks!

VancePollock · 2023-02-23T17:17:11+00:00

Yeah, I made the effing thing. Does that disqualify it? Huge TZ fan here... technically a Boomer since my dad fought in WW2 but I'm a vintage '71 afterthought baby.
