About this product

Product Information

IT IS THE 1920s and segregation is commonplace in the United States, including in Joe-Joe's small town of Blind Eye. Joe-Joe's father works at the local airport, and he's wanted to fly since the first time he saw a plane in the air. But even though the men who work at the airport were promised flying jobs, the owner refuses to let them fly, and they've lost hope that they'll ever get their chance. Their sadness spreads over the town and forms a cloud so thick even the moonlight and stars can't break through. But on one magical night, little Joe-Joe takes his first plane ride and he's got a plan: he's going to talk to that moon and lure her back to Blind Eye so the townsfolk can be happy again.

A great place for nerds and geeks who love literature, theater, superheroes, and scifi. We grew up in the 70's and 80's and kept our toys and books in great shape! But you never know what you will ...

    I'm very happy with the item. The price was very reasonable. The transaction was smooth, and the delivery was fast. The packaging was meticulously done to preserve the item securely from all possible damage, and it is exactly as shown in the photos.

    Fast shipping, great price for the shirt and item, looks in almost new condition, shipping cost was a rip off, considering I bought the same shirt in white for less than half the shipping cost, offer war was fun, would recommend seller but suggest someone look elsewhere first before going here. Either way, nothing wrong and a great seller
