Barfko-Swill

The official mail-order and merchandising company for Frank Zappa related products. Formed in the 1980s and run by Gail Zappa (aka Pumpkin), with the then Hotline number "818-Pumpkin". The formation of this mail-order business was to gain further independence and greater control of Zappa merchandise, whilst being a more hand's-on conduit to inquiries and fan-base communications. The company subsequently evolved into part of the official Zappa website (See URL)
