I'll pound you to a "Pulp" if you don't show off yours! 23 23

Hey Todd, get this & you get an excellent CAS: 'The Testament of Athammaus' + Kuttner's 'The Citadel of Darkness' praised last week...

[htp]

Not to derail more, but I had a really lucky find this summer: entire 1926 run of Overland Monthly, notable for the first appearance of Smith's Abomination of Yondo, and Wandrei's Emperor of Dreams. Never seen them before.

I have to admit to being pretty ignorant about his Weird Tales contributions. I just don't have enough of those. I do have most/all of his Wonder Stories though. Of the top of my head, I'd suggest (all in Wonder)

The Eternal World - March 1932

Master of the Asteroid - October 1932

Dweller in the Martian Depths - March 1933

The City of the Singing Flame - July 1931 (and the sequel Beyond the Singing Flame - November 1931)

The Light from Beyond - April 1933

They're all pretty short reads, so not a big investment if anything. Some of those from my collection (in need of upgrades...):

They all have nice interior illustrations too.

I need to get that October 1932 issue... it has a HPL story (written for Hazel Heald) as well.

i don’t want to jinx myself, but with luck I’ll have some mags with CAS poetry to show off in a few days

And it's a pretty good story too. Definitely an issue worth getting.

Congrats, I had the bid just below you  

How did it turn out? It actually looked pretty solid if you can overlook the water damage, with a nice overhang.

So many great CAS yarns: 'The Ice Demon', 'The Enchantress of Sylaire'...he is also a superb artist, sculptor, and poet - the best of the WT poets. (art on verse is his too)

 

 

Just dug out 'The Enchantress of Sylaire" on your recommendation, Pat.  You're right, it's a good one.  First appearance of the story, the issue is mine but the interior scan was found online.  A rare Brundage interior illustration:

The water damage was a concern but the pics of no tape made me think the book was still in decent condition, and it is, nice cover gloss and color, the pages are tan but no brittleness

and with complete covers. Yep very happy with it.

I’m probably going to get pummeled for saying this, but I prefer St. John to Brundage.

Especially St. John tigers!

I am with you on that one, if you have Cochran's ERB LOI, volume one is loaded with St. John art, magnificent stuff.

I love them both.   But, yes, an extra-enthusiastic shout-out to St. John tiger covers!

And the books showed up!  The entire run, in what ranges from decent to excellent shape, for what I consider an almost embarrassingly low price.  With a LOT of CAS poetry, and some essays and a story as well; and a lot of other good writers:
