A.P.E. "...CRAP" 2008

Hello!

Here are some photos of the Ganerda's Business table at the Alternative Press Expo 2008, better known as "A.P.E. 2008." It occurred in San Francisco, November 1-2, 2008. We were very proud to be there. It was our "STOP MAKING CRAP" debut, and it was very exciting! Many people were intrigued by the book as documented in the pictures below. Some people were so intrigued they bought a copy! HAFJAK's division symbol postcard set was a popular item as well. And if you look closely at our display, you will see a "dinner" set, a plate with a meal of meat and potatoes on it, accompanied by a glass of wine and a set of silver. HAFJAK called it "STEAK AND POHATOES." This was the most inspected item on our table! I suggested to HAFJAK that we make placemats or something out of the set, but, of course, HAFJAK said we should "stop making crap." Enjoy the photos below. You will see our display from the front and back. You will see people interested in our book. You will see our table neighbors. You won't see HAFJAK. He pulled the pictures of himself from this blog post. Why? He wasn't wearing his mask in the photos. You can see his mask in the photos of our display.

Thank you for your time and interest. Thank you to all those A.P.E. attendees who stopped and examined our book. Thank you very much to those who bought a copy. And thank you Comic Con International for hosting such a wonderful event!
