Back Issues Current Catalogues Letters Small AdsPicked these up at Spitalfields market this morning for £1 each. The Dennis Wheatley article, which bypasses the Black sorcery novels, these having already been tackled in an earlier issue, must rank among the most charitable ever committed to print. It is, of course, brilliant, especially for those of us pondering which non-supernatural titles to seek out. Richard Dalby on the collectable Frankenstein and it's many spin-offs (Robert J. Myers, Don F. Glut, Frankenstein: The True Story etc.), may yet spawn a Vault gallery, though can't help wishing the piece had been devoted a greater page count. Perhaps finest of all, Mike Ashley on the various Hutchinson magazines published between 1919 - 1929, including Adventure-Story, Mystery Story and Sovereign, a woman's romance which mutated into a weird fiction extravaganza. Will surely come back to this article at a later date. Equally fascinating, the self-explanatory 'Back Issues: A Complete Index to Authors & Subjects.' Paperback Fanatic could do with one of these!
