 My first post, back in February 2024, featured Forrester Millard in AMG’s Album A. Here he is in successive variety and solo albums:

With John Miller in Album B. Note the hand-drawn loin cloths.

Solo, in Album C.

Seaside in Album G.

With some vital statistics in Album J.

On the rocks in Album M.

Resting on velvet in Album R.

On the go in Album ZB.

Notes on AMG’s Thousand Model Directory 8

The next variety album (ZE) has a similar fate.

Milton Lippman is now — for understandable reasons — that ubiquitous public figure Walter Lippman[n] (1889-1974).

Louis Craig becomes Arnold Craig.

Joe Hern’s transformation is positively antique: he is called Enoch Hern.

Don Aston and Philip Mathes are reborn as Phillips & Aston.

It’s interesting to see Phil Mathis turn up some years later in the VK album. (I plan to cover Grecian Guild’s 1966 sequel to the Thousand Model Directory soon.)

To be continued.

Notes on AMG’s Thousand Model Directory 7

Continuing with the ZC album:

Bob Powers is now his brother Mike Powers — a double error, since Mike is already shown in the directory, on the same page and in the same row!

(Mike Powers appears in the ZT13 catalogue.)

Howard Thomas becomes Alan Thomas in the directory.

They seem familiar
