Thank you for the information. Other than in pictures, I have never really seen a true "pulp magazine". It might be interesting to see a size comparison photo of one. Even better than that, I could buy one. Not only would that tell me all that I need to know, I'd also be adding a piece of great cover art to my collection. Win win!

Shoot me your address again and I'll GIVE you one.... Merry Christmas  GOD BLESS....

Here's the first ones I grabbed off the shelves...  From Left to Right:  Bedsheet-Size Pulp,  Standard Pulp,  Digest,  Standard Paperback.

Picked up a couple pulps off mycomicshop to see how they grade, and they're pretty spot on.  Loving this cover.  It also came with a free Spawn comic

This has really helped me to understand the differences in the books. Thanks, Bookery. I appreciate it.

In case you're not familiar, he literally wrote the book on pulps.  As in "Bookery's Guide to Pulps".  One of the great things about these boards is the wealth of knowledge these guys have.  It's really appreciated.

I've wanted this conan since I first saw it in this thread a few years ago, finally found one for a decent price.  My favorite of the Brundage conan covers.  Left and bottom inch are a facsimile, but has enough of the original cover that it doesn't detract it to me.

Great books man. Keep it up. Very cool indeed. I'm not the biggest Brundage fan on earth, but she got to do so many of the Conan covers, I'm kinda stuck with her... because, well, Conan.

Quite a haul the past 2 days. I'll post them in their respective categories individually to appease the masses. Enjoy!!!

There are a lot of good Other Worlds covers, this isn't one of them. I have no idea why I bought it.

Editor Palmer doing his own cover for a Shaver story that doesn't appear in the issue:

isfdb also has this little gem on it: "For some incomprehensible reason 'Falcons of Narabedla' is illustrated by a photo from the movie 'The Mole People'."

A recent pick up. Low grade, but apparently pretty scarce and an awesome cover.

Is it just me, or does that Spider have ten legs?

The ones near the mouth are pedipalps, or feelers, so more like arms than legs.

No, I was not aware of that. I think it's quite an accomplishment to create a guide to such abscure books. I've requested to be notified when the book is back in stock.

Got this beauty in tonight. Third and final installment of the Red Nails Saga by the incomparable Howard.
