Literally, just the odds and ends of Miller related stuff that I either create myself, or have found on the internet. Many of the things featured here were seen on eBay at one time or another.

Glenn Miller AAF Band Tribute — Windows Movie file that I created featuring photos of Glenn and the AAF band set to the instrumental “Watermark” by Enya. (File is 3MB. Right click on the link and select “Save Target As..” to download the file.)

Turnabout Doll Book — Glenn, Tex and Marion were featured as paper dolls!

A Sweet Deal — An original, unopened (yes! Unopened!) box of Junket Quick Fudge mix from the 1960s was auctioned off on eBay sometime in 2007. On the back of the box was an exclusive record offer.

The Fightin’ Band Leader! — “The stirring war story of Major Glenn Miller and his overseas orchestra — and how he helped win the battle of morale with his baton!” Umm…okay. This “Real Fact” Comic unfortunately wasn’t very real and wasn’t very factual. LOL. Miller didn’t play the saxaphone, didn’t himself play in occupied Germany (tho’ the band did after his disappearance) and he hardly ever waved a baton. And I’ve yet to ever find anything that ever said he was ever heckled and booed by servicemen prior to going into the service for not being in the service.
