Black Mask August 1927


Although this early issue of Black Mask under Cap Shaw's editorship has stories by Fred Nebel, Raoul Whitfield and a Race Williams serial installment by John Carroll Daly, none of them got the cover. The cover illustration is for Sinister Orchids by Bassett Morgan, a pseudonym of Grace Ethel Jones, who also got the cover on a 1930s issue of Weird Tales. Click to see details/buy.

Triple-X magazine July 1929

For a pulp that lasted more than a hundred issues, copies of Triple-X are surprisingly hard to find. The Triple-X stood for air, war and west stories, and in this issue you get all 3 in one story and one cover - a cowboy fighting a German aviator in the sky. Click photo for details/to buy.

Pulp Deals - What this site is about

From time to time, I come across cool pulps for sale, that for one reason or another don't fit into my collection. Maybe it's a duplicate, maybe it's something i don't collect. I thought you'd like to see and maybe even buy them. If you do buy them, I sometimes get a small commission. Know a cool pulp I'm missing?
