"The Fragrant Web" by Jeremy Lane is another Lost World story.

 

The Century Co. published the novel in hardcover under the title Yellow Men Sleep.

 

An online bookdealer described the plot: "Lost race adventure novel of the hidden empire of Tau Kuan in the once verdant Gobi Desert."

 

Maybe P.C. will show us a copy later tonight. :wishluck:

Don’t have and couldn’t find DJ image of ‘Yellow Men Sleep’. Saw this that ‘an online book dealer’ described as “voodoo story”. Will offer my funky but colorful edition of the ‘lost race’ mother lode: orig 1886, this 194? + splash from the Fast Fiction comic (1949) that is one of the better four-color novel adaptations…

Super nice. :applause:

 

Is that one of the pulps you purchased from the Darrell Richardson collection?

 

Yes indeed. I tried to pick up a few more early burroughs pulps but there was way to much competition in that auction.

 

I also got this Darrell Richardson copy of the scarce third issue of Jack Dempsey's Fight Magazine a few months ago from a French REH scholar. (Earle Bergey cover)

lol

 

These are great, the language is so redolent of the times, but is this one the earliest Paratrooper cover? hm

 

na, it looks more like a flying machine. Thanks for thinking of me though!

Happy Birthday!

Rudolph Belarski was born May 27, 1900 and died December 24, 1983 –his work lives on! Here are 3 PB covers and ‘borrowed’ scan of the OA to the Jan 7, 1939 Argosy cover for ‘Synthetic Men of Mars’…
