Interesting project. I realize that it is in its
infancy, but you may want to include a link to Eric's
site of wonderful public domain works. I think this
one works: http://209.11.144.65/eldritchpress/ This
makes it a bit easier to avoid supporting copyright.
Another suggestion is to take advantage of used book
stores. I go about once a year and spend less than
$100 dollars to scarf up huge bag of great books!
Another fun thing to do is look for non-Disney
versions of the stories Disney is famous for. Getting
to the original story is not as important to me as
just providing another version of the story so that
they can discern what Disney has done. I'll leave the
"right and wrong" discussion for later.
One last suggestion is to support local artist and
artisans. Florists not using FTD designs, handmade
jewelry, cheap original paintings from the local art
school instead of overpriced prints from the mall,
locally owned newspaper instead of conglomerate owned,
locally owned radio instead of ClearChannel. This is
fun and sends less cash to the copyright
conglomerates.
Take care,
Keith
