The Bruce Bickford Experience

I went to see a documentary about Bruce Bickford at the Frye last weekend. His claim to fame is Frank Zappa's "Baby Snakes." The film was great and Bickford was there afterward to answer questions and hock his wares which were tiny clay figures used in the films which he had incased in some kind of foamcore with cut pieces of found plasitc for windows. I waited around after the show to get a look that the figures and even wanted to buy one. He said make him an offer but he was unable to give anyone a price for any of them. It was all a hassle so I purchased a DVD. The trailor for the documentary, "Monster Road," can be seen here:
