Last Call to Contribute to THE PULPSTER

THE PULPSTER with cover art by Walter BaumhoferDeadline for contributing articles to this year’s issue of THE PULPSTER is the end of April.

There is already an outstanding lineup of articles planned from Will Murray, Doug Ellis, Richard Bleiler, Scott Tracy Griffin, and others. But editor Bill Lampkin is always open to pitches for additional features. Please drop him an email at bill@pulpfest.com.

In addition to the magazine’s general focus on the pulp magazines, this year’s edition will also reflect the theme of PulpFest: The Children of the Pulps and Other Stories. We will examine how the pulp magazines influenced popular culture from the pulp era through today.

THE PULPSTER will also include the usual departments: Lampkin’s Editorial, “From the Publisher” by Mike Chomko, and the annual tributes by Tony Davis to those who have gone on to browse the great pulp rack in the sky.

Lampkin would like to hear your idea for an article. If you have one that you’d like to write — or if you have a topic you’d like to see covered in THE PULPSTER — please email him at bill@pulpfest.com. Deadline for submissions is April 30.

If you’re interested in promoting your work or organization by advertising in THE PULPSTER, please write to Mike Chomko at mike@pulpfest.com.

Meanwhile, stay tuned for another exciting issue of THE PULPSTER coming to PulpFest in August.

(The art used for this proposed cover of THE PULPSTER was originally painted by Walter Baumhofer. It depicts the original superman and was created for the March 1933 DOC SAVAGE MAGAZINE, published by Street & Smith Publications.

Copies of THE PULPSTER #26 and 27 are available for purchase through Mike Chomko, Books, one of the leading purveyors of pulp-related publications in the field. The cost of each issue is $13 or $24 for both, postage paid in the United States. Buyers from outside the United States should inquire about shipping charges, prior to placing an order. For additional information, please write to Mike at mike@pulpfest.com.)
