Description
Weird Tales - March 1923 First State (Rural) Condition: PR. The first issue from the longest-running and most influential of all pulp horror titles. This copy is a "first state," identified by the orange border around "Ooze", the man's orange shirt, and the woman's black bow (colors are different on the rarer "second state" printing). Bookery's Guide to Pulps describes the 1923 issues as "the rarest", and this is only the fourth copy of the first state version we've encountered to date. C. C. Senf cover and illustrations. Three-quarters of back cover and final page are missing, affecting the story. Bookery's Guide to Pulps Second Edition GD value = $4,000.Auction Info
