    I have a new appreciation for Barris and his photography for all the little books after watching Evels DVD. Alot of people wont hesitate to bash him but the man was there and was moving this hobby/lifestyle forward.

    Thank you George Barris and happy birthday.

    Happy Birthday to a legend. Saw him at Back to the 50's weekend in MN several years ago, just a-grinnin', yakking it up with folks and having fun. Seemed to me to be a really KOOL (with a capital "K"!!) sort of guy.
     
  28. Happy birthday Mr Barris from New Zealand.

    A day late but Happy birthday George. I'm another one who grew up reading those how to articles in the magazines and specials that showed up on the news stand for .75 back in the early 60's.
