Customer Reviews

Do Not Read This - Unless you watch old WB Cartoons!!

Anyone who has ever watched old Warner Brothers Cartoons is familiar with the mail order house of ACME. This is especially true of Road Runner Cartoons. Come along on a ride down memory lane!

I always wondered how much those gagets cost...now I know Wile was rich!

Need a clever disguise? or perhaps a pocket-sized anvil? ACME has it, and now they're reaching a bigger audience, reality. Filled with wonderful illustrations and humor, this book is a must-have for anybody who is a cartoon fan....or just needs a catalog to put onto the coffee table.

Nearly every page makes me laugh

This is a great inexpensive gift idea for anyone (especially guys) who grew up watching Wile E. Coyote chase the Road Runner. The articles and descriptions of the items, as well as the silliness of the items themselves, are laugh-out-loud funny.

A catalog of products liability

Very clever and most enjoyable for anyone who loves Looney Tunes...but where are the Earthquake pills?

ACME Catalog -- As promised

If you're a fan of the Road Runner and his nemisis, Wiley Coyote, then this is a must have. Every item, no matter how looney, that was featured in the cartoon is here. Complete pricing information for those intrepid mad scientists in your house.
