Just thought I'd add a thread about this small press publisher. I've only included publications which i have, rather than a full list. Necronomicon Press was founded in 1976 and began publishing mainly Lovecraft related literary criticism, fiction and poetry. I've not included a lot of detail but i will add it on request or when i get time. It's often more interesting to see these publications than read a dry list of contents. Thanks for the crash-course! Would certainly like some details of cover artists when you've the time and if it's not too much trouble. Would often see these on sale in the pulp mecca that was The Fantasy Centre but always passed. Guess it was just a case of not being a great lover of the Cthulhu Mythos. There was, however one exception. Robert M. Price (ed.) - Crypt Of Cthulhu: A Pulp Thriller & Theological Journal #41 (Cryptic Publications, Lammas, 1986) Robert H. Knox Editorial Shards
The Secret Of Kralitz (Weird Tales, Oct., 1936) The Eater Of Souls (Weird Tales, Jan., 1937) The Salem Horror (Weird Tales, May, 1937) The Jest Of Droom-Avista (Weird Tales, Aug, 1937) The Invaders (Strange Stories, Feb., 1939) The Bells Of Horror (as 'Keith Hammond', Strange Stories, Feb., 1939) Hydra (Weird Tales, Apr., 1939) The Hunt (Strange Stories, June, 1939)
Listing of Henry Kuttner's Anthology AppearancesBought this when I was very new to the game and thought every Kuttner story would be another The Graveyard Rats, consequently came in for a bit of a shock though the opening story is nothing if not lovely, ghoulish trad horror. This was Robert Price's attempt to reproduce all of Kuttner's Cthulhu Mythos stories in one magazine and comes with the explanation that the 'collaboration' with Robert Bloch The Black Kiss has been omitted on the grounds that it was all "the-man-who-wrote- Psycho's work. "Kuttner was credited as co-author simply because Bloch wanted to use the former's occult investigator Michael Leigh, who appeared first in The Salem Horror. The cover has 'issue 42' but they were being a bit previous as it was actually no. 41
