1985(?), Kerrang!

Don't have a date on this torn out article but by reading it the
article says in 3rd column on first page "...his last album, his 17th, "Dada" a stab at some 
of his old dark-and-twisted concept stories..."Alice also states he is currently working 
on "Welcome To My Nightmare Part II" saying "...the character reawakens 10 years later..."
"Welcome To My Nightmare" came out in '75 so an educational guess this issue is from '85.
This was way before Alice decided to releasing his next album "Constrictor".

Happy Birthday Alice


1983, DADA, misc article

Another miscellaneous magazine article on the 1983 DADA album
which I think is one of the darkest albums Alice has ever recorded
and a favorite of mine.

1981, The All-American Boy

I don't know which publication this article came from but do know it's during
the Special Forces album release and talks about the tour.

1973, Alice and Dali

The photo was taken by photographer Bob Gruen in 1973.
I don't know where I got this from or if someone gave it to me
 but I do know I didn't get it from a magazine in '73.
So I don't understand why it reads at bottom right of photo 1979 Bob Gruen.
Unless it was published in a magazine in '79.

I did post a similar color postcard in Blog Archive July 2012.
A slight different angle and pose but still in '73.

2012, Cooper'stown Bobblehead

I purchase this Alice Cooper Bobblehead on eBay from Cooper'stown in AZ.
They were selling them for $20 w/ shipping & handling it came out to $26.85.
I bought on January 25th and received it by USPS on January 31st.
From what it sounds like on the eBay description they plan on making more
in different styles. Just like the NHL Coyotes version they sold at the opening game.


This is the photo from eBay


This is my purchase which is exactly the same item.
It's a little over 7 inches tall and is surprisingly heavy.
It's not some cheap plastic bobblehead.



Back view on base reads COOPER'STOWN



Label on plain white box


This is the NHL Coyotes version that was on eBay for $30.
It's the same bobblehead only shirt is red w/ Coyotes logo
& base is also red w/ the Coyotes logo on plaque.
The box has more graphics.
