Bookery's Guide to Pulps

& Related Magazines

by Tim Cottrill. Bookery Press, Fairborn, OH, 2005. 391 pages. Oversized paperback, 8½ X 10½.

Interesting price guide, though a little hard to use. The three columns of prices are for Good, Very Good and Fine, but I had to hunt around to find that information. It's a little over generalized. For example, for the magazine Gang World, there were two series, one from 1930-1932, and the second from 1933-1934. It offers a general value of $100 per issue for the first series and $75 for the second (in Very Good condition). It does offer values for SOME specific issues, and gives the reason why ... a story by a highly collectible author, for example. There are also sections on Artists and Authors.
