Blood 'n' Thunder: Summer 2014 (Volume 41)

BLOOD 'N THUNDER #41 begins with a report on this year's Windy City Pulp and Paper Convention. "Tricks of the Trade" offers an article by Arthur Burks, "speed merchant of the pulps," on an occupational hazard to fictioneering. "Pulp Page to Silver Screen" explores the 1931 Western TRAILIN', based on a Max Brand novel serialized in ALL-STORY WEEKLY. "Cliffhanger Classics" covers a bizarre 1935 serial THE LOST CITY. Our feature articles include a survey of the short-lived but memorable Munsey pulp ALL-AMERICAN WEEKLY, and Larry Latham's overview of dime novel heroes adapted to the movies. There's also an article on a famous lawsuit between pulp publishers, and a 1922 reprint story from ADVENTURE written by Robert Simpson.
