If you're a fan of the Road Runner and his nemisis, Wiley Coyote, then this is a must have. Every item, no matter how looney, that was featured in the cartoon is here. Complete pricing information for those intrepid mad scientists in your house.

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!
