Saturday Morning Western Pulp: Thrilling Western, July 1938


Looks like roulette was just as dangerous in the Old West as playing poker, at least according to the cover on this issue of THRILLING WESTERN. I don't know who did the art. The line-up of authors in this issue is solid: Philip Ketchum, J. Allan Dunn, and Tom Curry are the big names, accompanied by Mojave Lloyd (almost surely a pseudonym, but the author's real identity has never been determined, as far as I know), Frank Carl Young, house-name John M. Easterly, and Fridtjof Michelson, not a name you'd think of as belonging to a Western writer, but he wrote for several Western pulps and did some detective yarns, as well.
