A ten-pounder is worth mounting in the game room, and a 15-pounder is brags forever. Baseball's retired great, Ted Williams, fishes as passionately as he played. He once landed...
...does not work on the four Ballantine Ale cans he has strung together with wire and filled with clashing, crashing stones. Pop Artist Andy Warhol perpetrates a botu-listic sick joke: a dozen T shirts (which unadorned sell for 50? apiece) carry his silk-screen representation of the tainted tuna tins that poisoned two Detroit housewives nine months ago Price: $300 each...
