R. R. Epperly Happy 100th birthday to Weird Tales whose first issue ( March 1923, cover story, Ooze) was published 18 February 1923. Thanks to Matthias of pulpscans for pinpointing the exact day.

Truly important date. I am celebrating exultantly with a hastily collected cake and some coffee. What would have become of Cthulhu, Tsathoggua, and Conan, without Weird Tales, I wonder. Would they have been just the same but found different venues?

Happy birthday indeed.
For a magazine which never was a commercial hit by the time's standards and could never be revived successfully, it has had an uncanny and big influence. It was one of a kind, which makes it something special.
