  Amazon.ca: Friend of China-The Myth of Rewi Alley: Books: Anne-Marie Brady,A. Brady   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
She is especially attentive to Alley's self-promotion through the ideologically-inflected international relations of the Cold War and through the upheavals of the PRC and its brand of "smiling diplomacy".
She does to Alley's inflated reputation, what sinologists like Simon Leys have done to the laughable idea that Mao was a great helmsman (even Alley, by the way, had the decency to think Mao "a prick" for persecuting his old comrades-in-arms).
Alley's apotheosis in China as the preeminent model foreigner came in the 1980s after Deng Xiaoping spoke at a banquet endorsing the example of the octogenarian Alley who had been unquestioningly loyal to the CCP.

Alley Oop is a syndicated comic strip created in 1932 by American cartoonist V.
Initially, Alley Oop was a daily strip which had a run from December 5, 1932 to January 3, 1933.
Alley Oop was a sturdy citizen of the prehistoric kingdom of Moo who rode his pet dinosaur, Dinny, carried a stone war hammer, dressed in nothing but a pair of fur shorts, and obviously would rather fight dinosaurs in the jungle than deal with his fellow countrymen in Moo's capital (and only) cave-town.

 Elfreth's Alley - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the residential character of the alley was impacted by increasingly industrial concerns, including a stove factory that opened in 1868 in the midst of the residential row of houses.
In 1934, the Elfreth's Alley Association (EAA) was founded to preserve the alley's historic structures while interpreting the street's 300-year continuum of history.
