Cool contest. I didn't know most of these but it was fun guessing. Awesome prizes btw!

P.S. Happy Birthday CD Forum!

[saginawhorror]

I know 6 of them. This is hard!

[Martin]

I know 7, am I correct to assume only one entry per person?

[peteOcha]

Cool deal and great prizes! Good luck to everyone!

[Brian James Freeman]

We tried to have some of them be easy and some of them be a little harder -- good luck and have fun!

[Martin]

You succeeded, I knew 3 off the top of my head, was able to find 4 rather quickly and will need to research the remainders.

[Dan Hocker]

For number 8, do chapbooks count?

I'm gonna say yes, but actually have no idea if they are in Brian's count or not. (If you're seeing this and you already sent in your submission please don't re-send it in)

[Teriw]

I put down the number of books and chapbooks just in case. one answer I can't seem to find. Although the others could be wrong. Ima send it in with the one answer missing because I can't find it.

[Brian James Freeman]

For number 8, do chapbooks count?

"No" to freebie promo chapbooks, but "yes" to any chapbook with a retail price that was actually sold through the store.

Well I counted everything I could find and gave Dan a breakdown...Of course I did run out of toe's and fingers so I probably mis-counted anyway
