Happy Thanksgiving to all! With the holiday shopping season getting underway tomorrow, why not treat yourself to "Christmas in July" by sending in your registration for PulpFest 2010? Or perhaps you can convince your significant other to skip the sweater that he or she was planning to buy for you on Black Friday and instead purchase a "3-day membership with early bird access" for their favorite pulp fan. And while they’re at it, you might want to tell them about the Titanic exhibit that will be at Columbus’ Center of Science and Industry through September 6. Why not make PulpFest 2010 a trip for the whole family? Columbus has plenty to offer!     (more…)

Although PulpFest 2010 is nearly nine months away, there could very well be a pulp con coming up, right in your home town. The first two Saturdays of November will feature three pulp-related shows, scattered across the United States.

Classicon 36 will be held in Lansing, Michigan on November 7. Ray Walsh’s long-running show features pulps, paperbacks, comics, calendars, pin-ups, original artwork and more. There will be 35 tables of goodies available. For further information, contact Ray at his Curious Book Shop in East Lansing, MI.

Down in Bordentown, New Jersey, just off Exit 7 of the Turnpike, you’ll find about three dozen tables filled with rare pulp magazines, vintage paperbacks, pulp reprints and movie collectibles. Rich Harvey has been putting on this one-day show for about ten years and it’s a blast. For further details about Pulp Adventurecon, please visit the Bold Venture Press website or drop Rich an email.   (more…)
