thecollectron Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 I think this artist drew some comic books too. I better find those quickly before everyone else discovers them and jacks the prices up... Drat! Too late! Yorick 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darwination Posted October 1, 2023 Share Posted October 1, 2023 (edited) With some crossover to the topic of Aussie pulps (on this thread or close by), I wonder if this is a digest? It fits in a digest bag, though a bit skinnier. Can a pub a mere 32 pages in length be termed a digest? 1951, part of the Scientific Thriller series. 32 pages, one illustration, two saddle stitched staples in upper half of the magazine. Blank inner front cover, one story. Kind of a neat format, and the American equivalent doesn't really jump to mind. Paul Valdez was a pseudonym for Alan Geoffrey Yates AKA Carter Brown AKA Raymond Glenning https://www.mediafire.com/file_premium/2amdcymppkuqj9a/Paul_Valdez_-_Killer_By_Night_-_Scientific_Thriller_Series_%281951.Transport%29_%28Darwin-IA%29.cbr/file https://archive.org/details/paul-valdez-killer-by-night-scientific-thriller-series-1951.-transport-darwin-ia Some others issues in the series (not in my collection), love the comic-book style covers which seem appropriate for the format: PS all these books are for sale (though they aren't exactly giving them away) via this gallery at Abebooks (more images too): https://www.abebooks.com/collections/sc/australian-vintage-paperbacks-pulps/7RXYkm9F892T0t9zhgj0zw Edited October 1, 2023 by Darwination Yorick, Sarg, OtherEric and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Pat Calhoun Posted October 1, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted October 1, 2023 good question on how short in page numbers a digest can be. perhaps the 64-page-or-less formats should be called booklets as they do seem for the most part to bill themselves as a partial offering compared to full size. here's a couple of UK 64-pagers: Tit-Bits 1954 and Sexton Blake 1961.
