AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Pulpdom is a zine about pulp magazines and their contributors, author profiles, and miscellaneous pulps with lots of color reproductions established by Camille Cazedessus. Each issue is about 28 pages in length. It evolved from ERB-dom (1960), a zine focusing on Edgar Rice Burroughs. In 1988 Cazedessus restarted The Fantasy Collector, with a name change to The Fantastic Collector, an in which incorporated ERB-dom. This zine eventually became Pulpdom (in January 1997).

Pulpdom concentrates primarily on the pre-1932 pulps, obscure authors of the ‘fantastic’, and particularly Argosy, All-Story and early Blue Book.

Notes

  • The Australian Horror Writers Association website records that Pulpdom published a facsimile reprint of James Francis Dwyers 1914 novel The Golden Octopus in 2003 (ctd. - "Checklist of Australian Fantasy and Horror: D-G"). Google Books also indicates that Pulpdom republished the story (but in 2002). The details relating to this publication are yet to be confirmed
