Whimsy


Wandering around high in the hills above Sarajevo, we stumbled upon this motor home.


Inspired by or inspiration for Miyazaki?

It's "Alan Ford" comics. Hugely popular in the 80's in former Jugoslavija. This man must be a fan himself and I'm sure he had more than a few fights with his wife over his "art".

Wow! Wikipedia (aka Source of All Knowledge) has a fascinating article on Alan Ford. I am now on the hunt for Alan Ford comics here. A bookstore? A trafika?

Regular bookstore will not have it since they stopped publishing it. Try used book stores or even your male, "older" (40-ish) neighbors. Girls were never into it and I would say that 80 % of Bosnians have at least one old copy of Alan Ford in their possession. It like a family heirloom, you NEVER throw it out no matter how old you are, or what your wife says.
