C/OW which is a moo point! Prefer the cream crop wise, but OW or better PQ... Note: This was free stock photo, so I'm milking puns for all they're worth!

Everett bubbles to Shores bubbles...

Yep, excellent quibbles. I think Nate should've mentioned a few of the more prominent pulp writers who graduated into television/film writing (etc.) who aren't familiar names. Examples like Robert Leslie Bellem and Hugh B. Cave come to mind. He teased John W. Campbell's "Who Goes There" written under the pseudonym Don A. Stuart ...the short story which became the basis for both Thing films (Carpenter's arguably much closer to the original story)... in the year before Campbell was given editorship of Street & Smith's Astounding, his direction advancing SF storytelling. Overall, as an introduction, Mr. Price's video was much better than expected. Matt Nelson's posts on pulps are also excellent, including reference sources to educate hobbyists on the history. While he understandably skirted over interior B&W art, Matt's focus on the magnificent cover paintings is dead-on and why pulps are ideally suited for encapsulation, difficulty notwithstanding.

Here's a short video that popped up on YouTube about the history of pulps for curious GA fans who aren't collecting 'em. While an oversimplification, it's a good fast paced primer on the relevance of pulps as an essential, underserved collector's market. Nate Price has his facts straight and draws the correct conclusions about influences. Note: I would've linked this video in the pulp forum or in General, but that'd take too much thought after imbibing ale.

Haven't posted in General for years, but with all the holder stuff going on had check inside the box to see if the liter had ever changed. While in the neighborhood, here are a couple of vetted distemper shots of feline purr-suasion to a-mews... Note: I left my Cat-Man comics out per thread guidelines, but only by a whisker; if I said it wasn't tempting, I'd be lion.

Yep, dating mystery always looks great on paper.
