BangZoom Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 Street Smith had a large stable of Western Characters appearing in Wild West and Western Story. Cross-overs were not that unusual. Pete Rice stories continued to appear after the demise of Pete Rice Magazine. That's a nice collection you have there. Have you read any of them? I'm looking for recommendations regarding who were the better authors writing for those titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 I don't remember where I found this pic but this gentlemen was proud to show off his stack of wild west weeklies too. I wonder what's this guy's story. Is he an author; a reader? We'll probably never know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedFury Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Thanks to the generosity of RedFury I received a copy of the new Walter Baumhofer book today. In order to commemorate the event I thought I'd post a few more pulps with Baumhofer covers. January 1933 You're welcome, BZ Amazing lighting in this one. There's no campfire in the picture, but you can tell it's just off-screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedFury Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 that's awesome! A similar cross-over would be Robert E. Howard writing a boxing story featuring Conan the Barbarian fighting Jack Dempsey. I'd read that, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedFury Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 February 1933 Another nice one! Seeing the girl in the red dress reminded me I recently upgraded my Jun 1938 Weird Tales courtesy of MrBedrock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markseifert Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Oh, wait, wait... is Wild West Weekly larger than "normal" pulp size? It looks larger in that pic. That would be interesting.

I'm looking for recommendations regarding who were the better authors writing for those titles. I have a couple of boxes of Western Pulps and many are from the thirties. My father collected pulps or at least kept his collection from his youth for many years. It disappeared long before I developed an interest in collecting pulps myself. I don't think it was hi-grade and I didn't read any of them or any of mine. I used to read mostly science fiction when I was younger and murder mysteries when I grew old and moth-eaten.

BangZoom Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Another nice one! Seeing the girl in the red dress reminded me I recently upgraded my Jun 1938 Weird Tales courtesy of MrBedrock. It's in gorgeous shape. I love the spiderwebs and the black background. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 Oh, wait, wait... is Wild West Weekly larger than "normal" pulp size? It looks larger in that pic. It does look larger in that photo but according to info I found online the title was standard pulp size from August 3, 1927 – November 1943. I found a photo of it online.

BangZoom Posted March 2, 2015 Author Share Posted March 2, 2015 It's Dr. Seuss' birthday today. To commemorate this special day I'm posting a Gerald McBoing Boing story. Gerald McBoing-Boing is an animated short film produced by United Productions of America (UPA) and given wide release by Columbia Pictures on November 2, 1950. The winner of the 1950 Academy Award for Best Animated Short, Gerald McBoing-Boing is the story of a little boy who speaks through sound effects instead of spoken words. It was adapted by Phil Eastman and Bill Scott from a story by Dr. Seuss, directed by Robert Cannon, and produced by John Hubley. In 1994, it was voted #9 of The 50 Greatest Cartoons of all time by members of the animation field, making it the highest ranked UPA cartoon on the list. In 1995, it was selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant". Dr. Seuss's story originally appeared on a children's record, scored by Billy May, issued by Capitol Records, and read by radio veteran Harold Peary. This comic book version appeared in the 1st issue of Gerald McBoing Boing which was published in 1952. It was illustrated, according to GCD, by either Mel Crawford or P.D. Eastman.
