Goodman was interred on April 21, 2016 at the Riverside National Cemetery.  He qualified for resting there by his service in World War 2.  I found a few more photos of Eli, which I am posting here.

Breaking news:  Arnold Herr’s hilarious fictional account of his many years of adventure at Cosmopolitan, uh, I mean “Megalopolis Books”, is being readied for publication.  Stay tuned for further news, especially if you are interested in obtaining a limited edition.

  1. Hi Paul,

    Those were the days, such memories. This is the first time I have read your blog, thank you.

    My dad and I frequented these dealers and countless others while we were “making the rounds”. I miss them and their fierce independence.
