But then I was also surprised to find out that Tennesse Williams and L. M. Montgomery both submitted stories to Weird Tales.<br /><br />Hopefully one day someone will track them down and put them in an anthology.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-24164397705475702332022-12-10T10:35:45.464-06:002022-12-10T10:35:45.464-06:00There's a Simak story in WESTERNS OF THE FORTI...There's a Simak story in WESTERNS OF THE FORTIES, edited by Damon Knight and published by Bobbs-Merrill in 1977. That's the only one I know of that's been reprinted. That's a good anthology, by the way, with a slightly offbeat selection, as you might expect. There are three stories by Murray Leinster in it, as well as one by John D. MacDonald. The other authors are ones you'd expect, Blackburn, Bonhan, Coburn, Farrell, Roan, etc.James Reasonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049917964433932612noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7527967.post-16402772773726670382022-12-10T10:21:08.500-06:002022-12-10T10:21:08.500-06:00I never read a Simak western.

I wish they were collected somewhere, but I can't imagine they are.<br /><br />Between the wild, almost Norman Saunders style, action and the slightly goofy horse face low on the right, I thought this might be Allan Anderson. But this isn't a Fiction House mag and most of Anderson's other elements seem to be missing.<br /><br />Hope someone out there knows who painted this fine pulpy scene.<br /><br />And I hope the Holidays are treating you well, James.<br /><br />John Hocking<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
