I'm thinking maybe The Lone Ranger, Spicy Western, Ace High, early Frontier, early Action, maybe any of the funky short run titles from the late 20s. There's some pulp collectors totally into Westerns that will pay top dollar for the scarce early ones that never come around. I tend to like the stories more than some other genres but some of the covers in the later pulp era are pretty repetitive (lots and lots of yellow covers). The price is right, though. It's one of the few areas where you can still find a nice little lot of beater to midgrade books for ten or twenty bucks or buy one with a big author without emptying the saddlebag...

Show me your Timely's and I'll show you mine. Have a Cigar...

First two issues were Stag, Goodman looking to copy Esquire, and then the name switched here. A final issue in the same oversized slick format as the others was Read! which is thought to be left over materials from the first three. -

Howz About Some Love For The Romance Pulps!
Darwination replied to GACollectibles's topic in Pulp Magazines
A nice lot of 3 Serenades I got in this week, a later incarnation of The Illustrated Love Magazine (companion to Illustrated Detective/Mystery and The New Movie Magazine in the Tower line, sold for a dime at and published by Woolworth's). They're a little grubby but holding together nice, and the insides are white as can be -

The LOC converted (almost) all their pulps to microfilm (in the 90s maybe?) but did keep at least some covers (not sure about the extent of those holdings). I've seen stamps "in the wild" before and have a few but not just on pulps but other mags as well. I don't know quite how they end up outside, but I think the LOC will donate surplus copies to other libraries or institutions (versus selling anything).

I like Adventure House and think the prices are usually very reasonable. The website, like the the websites for at least a few of the old school dealers I can think of, needs a remodel

August 66 https://archive.org/details/chilling-monster-tales-v-01n-01-1966-08.-m.-m.-dregs-ia Pretty cool mag, it's got some cool movie features with some neat red inks and some grotesque face pages. Comic style captioning gag pages, too.

I came across this in my image files but don't have a copy on my shelves, so I may have given it to a younger brother. The blurb sounds very unlike the book I remember -
