Guild Guitar Catalog – 1961 (Targ & Dinner)

Targ and Dinner (T&D) was Chicago Based Musical instrument distributor that sold Guild and sometimes included Guild catalogs. Since Guild did not time their catalogs to be released at same time as T&D, the contents were often reflective of the previous year’s Guild catalog. Note also that T&D catalogs contain prices which were not part of the Guild catalogs and may not necessarily reflect those found in Guild price lists for the given year.

Annie the Tribble

Annie is an affectionate dog, and by affectionate, I mean a pain in the ass.  Annie loves everyone. If you sit down, she will run up to you with her tail a-waggin’ then jam her head into your lap, looking up at you with those big brown why aren’t you petting me? eyes. Of course the eyes are just a distraction from the dripping wet drool-laden lips that just soaked your pants, but that’s all part of the game. You see, in the language of Newfoundland dogs, drool = love.

If, after a reasonably long time—say, one-third of a second—you haven’t begun to pet her, she will then take her pointy nose, jam it under your arm and flip your hand up on top of her head where it belongs. If you know what’s good for you, you’ll commence with the petting, or it will just get worse. Actually that’s not true; it always gets worse. Read More
