Saturday Morning Western Pulp: Ace-High Western, September 1944


I really like this cover. I may have to write something inspired by it, if I can find the time. Lee Floren is probably the best-known author in this issue, but the best titles are on stories by Cliff M. Bisbee ("Slave-Master of Hell's Rancho") and Roy M. O'Mara ("When Dead Dog City Went Mad"). Other authors in this issue are John Colohan, Thomas Thompson, and R.S. Lerch.

I would love to live in a city called "Dead Dog". Popular Publications really liked over the top story titles and descriptions with puns.

"Funeral O'Neill, D.D. -- Doctpr of Death!" is a great title too. Wonder if he ever shared a practice with Donal O'Brien's "Doctor Butcher, M.D. -- Medical Deviant." http://www.badmovies.org/othermovies/drbutcher/

his might be one of the two or three issues of ACE-HIGHs I have a copy of. In storage, so tough to check.
