I've read many of them over the years. To be honest, I love all the reprints and replicas and would buy every one of them if I had the money and the space for them. I've had to be more selective on both counts the past couple of years, but I still pick up a lot of them. I ordered some stuff from Pulpville Press just the other day, in fact.James Reasonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049917964433932612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-76350556801402687992009-10-12T21:08:17.343-05:002009-10-12T21:08:17.343-05:00James, how do you feel about Aventure House?

I have a number of their pulps, and they seem to re-print pulps from a wide variety of genres, have great cover art and original interior art, and are very affordable. Also, I'm wondering what your take is on the Shadow reprints by Nostalgia Ventures and Girasol's Spider pulp doubles. Again, great cover and interior art, and affordable. Besides the Spider doubles, Girasol has great pulp replicas, but they're a bit too expensive for me. I've really enjoyed reading some of the Shadow pulps (when I was a kid I only knew about the Shadow from old radio shows I owned on LP, which were great), as well as some of the more off-beat titles, like VICE SQUAD DETECTIVE, the collection IT'S RAINING MORE CORPSES IN CHINATOWN, and the "weird menace" pulps like MYSTERY TALES. I'm just wondering what your take is. Most of this stuff I never even knew existed until the past five years.<br />Oh, and I mustn't forget, a company called Pulpville has published a number of thick, meaty volumes of Bellem's Dan Turner stories.Rittsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08145597443811879849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-12637374385600400492009-10-12T11:44:54.605-05:002009-10-12T11:44:54.605-05:00Beb here.

I do have photocopies of all the stories and plan to eventually reprint the entire run. Altus Press (Matthew Moring) has been using my text files for his Omnibus soft and hard cover reprints. My reprints come out first. His editions make a nice row on a shelf. <br /><br />As for the authors of Secret Agent "X" they are Paul Chadwick, Emile C. Tepperman and G. T. Fleming-Roberts with one story identified as by Zaget and another that can't be placed. I very much doubt that it was by Richard Sale. Sale did write write some of the back-up stories in "X." Some of these have been posted at www.pulpgen.com where they exist as free PDF files.bebnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-60185706815065462332009-10-10T17:19:34.957-05:002009-10-10T17:19:34.957-05:00Yeah, I think the plan is to get all of the novels...Yeah, I think the plan is to get all of the novels back into print eventually. Somebody gave you some bad info, though. Richard Sale might have written some of the back-of-the-book short stories in the pulp, but he didn't write any of the SAX novels themselves.James Reasonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049917964433932612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-70744525747362716422009-10-10T13:22:15.102-05:002009-10-10T13:22:15.102-05:00Is Beb Books the outfit that's planning to rep...Is Beb Books the outfit that's planning to reprint the entire Secret Agent X series? I read just recently that Richard Sale wrote several of the X stories and look forward to seeing them.Evan Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07620731784654779358noreply@blogger.com
