New old stock acquired from Cathy Hillenbrand, the publisher of The Real Comet Press. Hillenbrand was owner of the (in)famous Comet Tavern on Seattle's Capitol Hill. A supporter of the local underground arts scene, in 1980 she held a contest to design the tavern's matchbook cover, which was won by then-unpublished Lynda Barry. The Real Comet Press would eventually published four Lynda Barry books Girls + Boys, Big Ideas, The Good Times Are Killing Me, and Naked Ladies, Naked Ladies, Naked Ladies.
