Burbank Burbank and Vertigo Smith in a Californian Oddity

A narrator and a companion recount a wild tale of Vertigo Smith, self styled second Burbank, who pursues living creatures and oddities rather than plants. They encounter a strange family of creatures in a reforming valley and a peculiar old man who lauds his pet hornpout and a blue snake.

Diplodocus Dream Turns Parlor Trick Into Rampant Beast

A quirky tale follows a scheming amateur naturalist and partner Vertigo as they breed fantastical hybrids from lions to diplodoci. They blend bloodlines from rhinoceros to rogue elephants, hoping for a marketable wonder while dodging practical chaos of a growing, uncontrollable genetic zoo.

Nightmare voyage with a rampaging zoo and a runaway horse

A narrator recalls a surreal escapade during the Morphous handicap involving a dinosaur menagerie, a rogue horse trick, and a chase through a valley moonlit by strange beasts. Vertigo escapes, diplodocus pursues, and a perilous fall ends with survival in Mammoth Cave and a Beebe Indiana schoolteacher party.
