ANOTHER SKETCHBOOK GOES TO SKETCHBOOK VALHALLA

Done.

Another

Muppet Babies.

and Art Director

Chris Moreno,

mostly of 

Director

Guy Moore:

Here are some 

homemade

Yu-Gi-Oh

cards

my son Kelley made that 

were too good to throw away:

And then,

as is bound to happen,

the book was finished

after five months of loyally

recording my every move:

And now it's on to the next book.

Stick around and I'll show it to you 

when its done!
