King Henry VIII's Pocket Ludo (19??)

King Henry VIII's Pocket Ludo (19??)

by House Martin

Given that Ludo wasn't patented as such in England until 1896, it's unlikely that Henry VIII ever said "Bring the... Ludo," as suggested by the box art. But considering that modern Ludo was based on a game that's believed to have existed from at least the 6th Century in India, it's not wholly improbable that the 16th Century King may have played a version of what inspired it.

KERRANG!: Ladykillers A-Z (1989)

A four-part pull-out supplement that came with KERRANG! magazine issues #237-240.

It's a fairly standard list of contemporary female artists in the Rock + Metal genre, arranged as an A-Z — from (Lee) Aaron to Zed Yago — with a small passage of text accompanying each one.

K! Article: The King of Depravity (1988)

by Giovanni Dadomo.

An article from KERRANG! magazine about Aleister Crowley. Issue number ???, but I'm pretty sure it was published sometime in 1988. It's a typical condensed magazine bio, but I know at least one person who might enjoy seeing it - the claim that Anne Rice's The Vampire Lestat (1985) novel is 'brilliant' notwithstanding. Even self-indulgent wankery has its fans. YMMV.

King Kong Board Game (1976)

King Kong Board Game (1976)

I bought the game from a jumble sale sometime in the 80s. It's not much fun to play, but it's an interesting piece of vintage tat that I'm getting rid of, now preserved for posterity. The copyright info + box art show it to be related to the De Laurentiis Movie (1976–86) directed by John Guillermin. You can find a review of that on my main blog HERE.
