Saturday Morning Western Pulp: 10 Story Western, March 1945


"You knuckleheads!" This is one of the rare Western pulp covers that has some goofy humor to it. There's a good line-up of authors inside, too: William B. Cox, Tom W. Blackburn, Frank Bonham,  and Ray Gaulden, among others. There's a story by Gordon Steele, the only credit listed for him in the Fictionmags Index, and I have to wonder if he was really Bennie Gardner, much better known as Gunnison Steele. I've read quite a few issues of 10 STORY WESTERN (not this one) and it was a consistently entertaining Western pulp.

Love that cover!

Strong list of writers, too. Personally I can read and do literally anything i find by Blackburn and Bonham. 2 of my faves.
