Speaking for myself, that single heavily redacted page is worth a dozen pages of sworn depositions. It is spectacular.

soooo…analog Deviantart?
eta: tijuanabible.com is available somehow, thought it is being squatted by a semi-ambitious person asking $3k…
There is a remake. The villains were the Chinese until MGM realised that the real Chinese government would be rather unhappy, so the film was re-edited to replace the evil Chinese with evil North Koreans.

I don’t know… I kinda think that this would please Trump on some level. All press is good press.
Now if Trump were part of a Tijuana donkey show, that would be different. I wouldn’t look at that either, but just knowing it was happening would put a spring in my step.

Chick’s first tract was published in 1960, long after the heyday of the Tijuana Bibles. We can only conclude that his style was influenced by long, hard study of them .
