I picked this book up at an estate sale. It isn't too old but out of print. There are used available at Amazon. It is "The Encyclopedia of Bad Taste" Does it say something about me that everything I LOVE is in here? Cadillacs, fake fur, Hawaiian shirts, Monster Trucks, Nudism, Taxidermy, Treasures from trash, Vans, Velvet paintings,Weeki Wachee Mermaids, and of course Polynesian Food! There's more too! It is well written and will have you laughing out loud! Oh well, to quote another great book.."Ah, good taste! What a dreadful thing! Taste is the enemy of creativeness!" Pablo Picasso- from TBOT. A must have book! Any other must-haves besides the obvious?
