[This issue for some reasons seems to have rusty staples — sorry, I'll try to pick the best of the crop for you.] Note: I haven't included data for all the issues, yet, but a complete listing may be found at the following website: http://www.isfdb.org/wiki/index.php/Series:Weirdbook Shipping in the US is by media mail with delivery confirmation. The contents are a lot like the old pulp magazine Weird Tales, and you will find fantasy, S&S, ghosts, monsters, and just plain off-trail material. Of course these weren't really magazines at all but a set of booklets, published about one a year, featuring mostly fiction. ____________________________   Want to look at my other offerings, mostly weird/fantastic/SF books/magazines/fanzines?CLICK HERE WOW!
