I'll pound you to a "Pulp" if you don't show off yours! 23 23

Congrats on the additions to your collection.

 

They look great.

 

I had no idea Murray had illustrated any pulp covers.

[Theagenes]

I want to know if wrestling is on the level or not. I have my doubts.

[Xaltotun]

Yeah, it *is* an ambiguous cover.

What's Murray famous for?

[Pat Calhoun]

Feg Murray was born in San Francisco. He was a sport cartoonist and columnist for the Los Angeles Times and did a feature called 'True Stories about Stamps' in True Comics around 1943. He is best known for his cartoon strip, 'Seein' Stars', in which he showcased several Hollywood celebrities of the time, in the style of Robert L. Ripley. 'Seein' Stars' appeared in hundreds of newspapers between 1941 and 1953. In addition, he was a radio host, among others on 'The Baker's Broadcast'.

The three latest additions to the REH pulp collection.

In seven years of collecting REH pulps, I had never seen any of these listed, so the three of them in superb condition, nice paper and all, in one fell swoop... I took the plunge immediately.

 

those are very nice pulps!

i hope you guys don't mind seeing a picture of a baltimore maryland stand on calvert & fayette street from sept 1923.

 

there's the first issue of sport story magazine among other pulps.

this cover is not as dynamic as your covers.

His working on Sport Story is appropriate as apparently he was an Olympic track and field athlete when he was young.

Neatstuff is currently auctioning a HUGE lot of Pulps on Ebay, including approximate 1700 individual issues, bound copies and bedsheets. So many gorgeous covers. I must admit I'm tempted by these as I'd like to keep some and sell the rest. Just don't have the funds at present sadly.

This is a great week to celebrate Sword and Planet fiction. First up we have Planet of Peril by OAK, with a bonus REH boxing story (I bet you guys no idea REH wrote so much pugilistica).

 

It's low grade, but it has nice paper and it's signed by Frank Miller.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Theagenes]

I this is one I've been trying to nail down for a while. I thought I won the Jerry Weist copy last fall, but my bid didn't go through. This one may be nicer and I suppose the movie brought it out of the woodwork.
