Whether it's a Fake Hole or Iron Birdseed, nearly every item is guaranteed to maybe improve the quality of your life.

5.0 out of 5 stars Do Not Read This - Unless you watch old WB Cartoons!!, Sep 12 2007

By Bruce K. Bates "birdwater" - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: The Acme Catalog: Quality Is Our #1 Dream (Paperback)

Anyone who has ever watched old Warner Brothers Cartoons is familiar with the mail order house of ACME. This is especially true of Road Runner Cartoons. Come along on a ride down memory lane!
