Single Issue Magazine. Zustand: Near Fine. First Edition. New York: Weird Tales, 1949. First Edition. July, 1949 issue, Vol. 41, No. 5. Cover by Matt Fox. Octavo, illustrated wraps, 96 pp. One of the best preserved pulps from the forties I've seen. By pulp standards, a solid Near Fine. Lightly penciled initial "r" in the "W" on cover, light fold at very edge of front top corner, very small amount of loss at bottom front corner (see scan), even, light toning to the still very supple pages. Clean, and with a virtually complete spine (about a 2mm area of damage at bottom), which is always a rarity with pulps of this age. Sharp copy. A handsome example of one of the leading titles in an American art form - Pulp Fantasy & SciFi - Weird Tales. Matt Fox's rather Hieronymus Bosch-like gruesome fantasy cover depicts this issue's Long Novelette (of which there were generally one per issue at the time), "Come and Go Mad (who is to know with certainty the mad from the unmad in this turbulent world in which both play parts?)", by Frederic Brown. Others: a standard-length novelette, "The Masher", by Ewen Whyte; short stories by a cadre of names, some of which would become Hall-of-Famers: "Floral Tribute" (Robert Bloch); "Dark O' the Moon (Seabury Quinn); "In the X-Ray" (Fritz Leiber Jr.); "The Ubiquitous Professor Karr" (Stanton A. Coblentz); "From the Vasty Deep" (H. Russell Wakefield); "The Blue Spectacles" (Stephen Grendon); "How Strange My Love" (Russell Branch); and "The Previous Incarnation" (Harold Lawlor).
