Yes! Ebay makes it very very easy to sell and ship to places outside the U.S. I was used to Etsy, so had decided not to, but I got messages from people in France and Italy interested in my pulps, so I looked into it and was amazed at the simplicity! Thanks for pointing this out!

I'm finished with the Doc Savage issues and am now moving on to the #WeirdTales. I'm picking up where I left off in May 2008 with May 1944. The first batch will be those last 4 issues of that year. #HorrorFiction #VintagePulps #RobertBloch #Lovecraft #Bradbury #AugustDerleth. Now, auction or BIN??

Thanks! No, I don't. This was all pretty much set by the time I was around in the 1970s. He was very proud of them and they were on display on the bookshelves in the den where there was NO SUNLIGHT EVER allowed! The smell of these is that smell of the den-cozy and comforting.

My last #DocSavage issues are up for auction! These #1940s pulps from 1943 are the last in the #EdCoxCollection and can be yours! These were actually bought by my father and uncle and even have their names scrawled in pencil on some of the correspondence school coupons.

More more MORE #AstoundingScienceFiction pulps! I have three copies of some of these issues. My dad sure like them, I guess. And I haven't even gotten into the Analog editions!

If these boys knew what their commander-in-chief would be in 2025....

Annie and I have found a secret stash in the attic of #AstoundStories, these from 1943 to 1950. Now I have most from 1939 to 1965. Annie's got a lot of work ahead of her!

I'm just wild about that handsome #SkylarkSmith on the cover of #AstoundingScienceFiction in October 1939!!! He's the bees' knees!

#AstoundingScienceFiction April 1940. #LRonHubbard #FinalBlack #Cult

I remember this one.

I wonder what this U. S. Marine from 1939 would think about a president using the Marines against and intimidate civilians in American cities? What would he think about a president who wants to use "dangerous" cities as military training grounds?

Thanks! It's all my father's collection. I just wish I could read it all!

CoxReads @coxreads.com · 17d

It might be several days. It have to finish a year and a half of Doc Savage first. I just finished cataloging these and I have May 1944 through to March 1952 with a few issues after that. These covers are amazing! And terrifying!

Well, whaddya know about that! I know about archive.org because that where I learned how to say no to heavy petting in 1951, how not to be a juvenile delinquent in 1958, and how to throw a good party in 1950. Now I know I can read these magazines, too. Thanks!
