The Ultimate Pulp ~WEIRD TALES Dec. 1932~ 1st CONAN VG+ {SOLD}

[Comicsarefun]

Hello all.

 

I am letting go of my prized pulp...my sort of pedigree awesome Weird Tales Dec. 1932.

 

Contains the Phoenix on the Sword, the first Conan story by Robert E. Howard.

 

On the pulp grading scale this is a solid VG+, with eye popping colors. Glorious to behold. Pages are off white with light tanning at boarders, very supple. Possible minor glue to spine, but I can't tell if it is original spine glue or not. Hard to say, so I will call it possible glue to spine at some point in the last 78 years.

 

This very copy is so nice, that it was used as the copy photographed in the massive hard cover book, "The Conan Phenomenon", by Paul Sammon. Hence the sort of pedigree! I will include a copy of "The Conan Phenomenon with the pulp, as it is fun to have the book with the pulp.

 

My asking price is $1500, delivered in the USA. Outside USA at cost (Global Express should run about $35).

I've negotiated for a living for more than a dozen years & think that's my first time bidding against myself.

This book's destiny on the day of its printing was to find its way into my HOARD.

I hate you... you're a poser. A true Cimmerian would have smashed his skull and taken the book as tribute.

As with the purchase price, the parley's details will remain private. However, you're free to assume this wasn't a bloodless conquest.
