Sunday Morning Bonus Pulp: Spicy Stories, January 1934


Not many pulps featured New Year's covers, but SPICY STORIES did from time to time. This one from 1934 was painted by Earle Bergey before he became well-known for his many great covers on science fiction pulps. I've never heard of any of the authors who have stories in this issue, but here they are for the sake of completeness: Louise Langdon, Tom Kane, Ralph Gordon, Wilbur Braun, Reggie Coghlan, Rae King, and Bert King. Now and then you run across a familiar name in the TOC of one of these pulps, such as Robert Leslie Bellem, but for the most part, the risque pulps are a whole other world from the ones we usually talk about here.

And with that, I hope it's a great New Year for all of you.
