Sam's collected memorabilia and a vast array of interviews with some of the behind-the-scenes people who created your favorite cult movies.  I met him as a convention photographer, for an interview about Marvel Con '75, one of his first, if not the first, photo assignment he took on of that sort.  You can listen to that one in our December archives!  I have more from that interview, too, coming up in our March podcasts.  But here, Sam talks about his new book, and the changes in pop culture that made what was disposable now indispensible!
