I remember the old paper back Tegner books. In fact I still have at least one. When they where published therewasn'tmuch else out there in print. Anything was better than nothing.
Still like I said there wasn't much else to be found so they filled a void and made one want to search out instructors to learn from.

That book, along with the Ashida Kim books and the like should all be in the comedy section.

Hey, is that the book with the 'Ganges Groin Gouge'? If I remember correctly, it was an incredibly complex move whereby one drops to one knee in front of one's opponents, grabs the opponent's unmentionable's, and pulls them off in a ripping manner.
It's a pity sarcasm doesn't convey well in this medium
