"Super, smashing, great."
I picked this one up for 50p yesterday. "Local lad come good"! Hard backed first edition from 1994.
Signed dedicated and dated the book is titled " From a bundle of Rags" the autobiography of Jim Bowen.
Jim Bowen (born Peter Williams on 20 August 1937) is an English stand-up comedian and TV personality. He is best known as the host of the I.T.V game show Bullseye, which he hosted between 1981 and 1995. Bowen was born in Heswall, Wirral in Merseyside, adopted by Joe and Annie Whittaker of Clayton-le-Moors who changed his name to James Whittaker and educated at Accrington Grammar School in Lancashire.
And I'll bet there's a graham among the Lurkers who could have had this.
2nd find for bank holiday Monday

That's a nice one Alex - top find, and true bargain for 50p. That's awesome!. I also used to enjoy Bullseye. I have a signed pic of him holding a Bully from an old ttm reply. Great tv character.
