Just arrived this copy of WT Feb 33, courtesy of RyanH from the Forrest Ackerman collection: Been looking for a VGish copy of this for a while, in order complete my run of WT Allen St John Buccaneers of Venus covers. Now I only need 8 more Brundage WT covers to complete that particular run Thank you so much Ryan
  4. My copy of the CREEPING DEATH Jan 33 Shadow Pulp. I just LOVE this cover!
  5. I thought I would post the VERY RARE Canadian ONE SHOT entitled Eerie Tales from my collection, published in Toronto in 1941. There are only a few copies in existence. I acquired my copy from the personal collection of Jerry Weist: A little history on this pulp, cited from Don Hutchinson, a recognized authority on vintage pulp magazines: "Eerie Tales had boasted on its cover: "Every Story Original." Published by C.K. Publishing Co. of Toronto, the magazine made good on its claim but unfortunately lasted only one issue. It is now probably the rarest of all the so-called CanPulps. Once again Thomas P Kelley ("The Horror Man" as the cover proclaimed) dominated the fledgling publication with one story and the beginning of a serial written under his own name plus a number of other pseudonymous gems bearing titles like "Horror in the Dungeon," and "The Phantom Trooper." Under the Valentine Worth cognomen he even retooled his "I Killed Hitler" story as "I Killed Mussolini." "Unfortunately Eerie Tales was too little and too late. With the end of World War II Canada's embargo on foreign magazines was lifted and hundreds of vibrant, exciting pulp titles began flooding on to newsstands just as they had in the pre-war glory days. The undernourished and unexciting CanPulps quietly faded away, leaving little impression at all. Canada's only pulp era had been created by the war. Like the war, it soon passed into history."
