From the Temptations song, "Papa was a rolling Stone" -
Most pulps have either 128 or 112 pages, talking 1930's and 40's, though there are exceptions. It always pays to do a page count, just like you would do when purchasing a comic. I've been collecting pulps for at least 25 years and have had very few with missing pages, though it has happened. The auction houses don't count pages as I can attest. I bought a Spicy Mystery from 1935, the classic cover with the redhead in lingerie discovering a lynching victim, from one of the major auction houses. I paid over $1000 which was a lot of money at the time. The first thing I did was a page count and sure enough it was missing a story page, rendering it it complete and therefore worth much less. I contacted them and returned the pulp for a refund. If you're paying a few bucks for a pulp, not a big deal, but if you're investing serious money, do yourself a favor and count the pages to avoid later heartaches, especially when selling down the road.
