Neil's book "Jack Kahane - The History of the Obelisk Press" - published November 2008. Click here to buy it on Amazon!
Neil Pearson has been called the 'Housewife's Hottie', and when he was mentioned in one magazine a few years ago they added in brackets (Your Mum probably fancies him....) However, statistical studies have shown that Neil's fans tend to be intelligent, well balanced ladies, very likely to have undertaken further education and to have happy and well balanced lives - so there you go, he is indeed 'The Thinking Woman's Pin-Up' so if you fancy him, be proud of yourself.
This page is a tribute to his work - the idea is that you will be able to click on any of the titles below and find out details of the production, along with photos and so on.
If you have any information you would like to see included please do Email it to me and I will add it. I want to make this a useful resource for all of Neil's fans.
Please feel free to contact me on gushoneybungirl@yahoo.co.uk
