Up into the 1960s at least, the pulp collecting focus was on text rather than art: the acquisition of rare, even legendary, stories that were not available in any other form. The small-press reprint houses, led by August Derleth's Arkham, and publications like Famous Fantastic Mysteries and Avon Fantasy Reader, worked against the fear of classic tales crumbling into dust. Simak's 'The Creator' loomed high on the 'ungettable' list, but armed with the 21stC SFDB I saw that there was a 1961 reprint which I promptly ordered and read and was happy when the story lived up to its status as an elusive superstar.

a thank you into the beyond to Ufi: great gallery and I downloaded couple of faves. the 1910 Cavalier as frozentundraguy and I have been admiring 'sailing ship' covers as a worthy 'subset' for a while now. and the Star Weekly as I'm a Fearn fan, and I love the thought that the housewives and farm fraus of rural Canada spent their time off scooting into space with the Golden Amazon.

I confess; I am my father's son as pictured. Here's a later photo. Michener used to talk about the 'Calhoun mind' as I think he was favorably comparing the Admiral to his great-grandpa, John C Calhoun. Hopefully the tradition has continued. Pic shows my wife Gina and I, standing in for Ambrose Bierce at the Bierce family plot as Ambrose never made it.
