Weird Tales is a so-called pulp magazine, a magazine (approx. 17x24cm) printed on highly wood-pulp-based paper, containing short stories from the realm of the strange and macabre - Weird Tales indeed - across almost 100 pages. Authors in this issue include, among others, Robert Bloch and Ray Bradbury. The stories are accompanied by black-and-white illustrations. In the first half of the 20th century, pulps were cheap entertainment literature in the USA and disappeared once paperbacks took over their role. Today they are traded as collector's items and sought after for their cover art and authors. This issue from March 1946 has a cover by Lee Brown Coye and is in very fine condition. Unfortunately, the spine of the magazine is sun-faded, so the condition is "only" 6.5.
