and thuggee on the other is plenty, without a doubt. Verily, verily I must have been missing something!
Shove over, you fledglings of this Weird Eyrie, there's another eaglet coming aboard.

Finding it difficult to get copies of WT in my neighborhood, I sent in for my subscription recently. Any other readers who might find it hard getting WT around town, I suggest they do likewise.
There's nothing like grabbing your copy of WT from the mail; sitting in the old easy chair to escape reality for awhile to live a life of high adventure.
I wish WT were a monthly publication as so many other readers do.
Much success to WT and all the people who make it one of the best magazines in the "pulp" field.

A few months ago, while searching around for reading material to fill in a spare evening, I chanced upon an old copy of Weird Tales. As a preliminary to settling down, I quickly thumbed my way through the copy, to give me a general idea of the contents. It was then that I just realized that here was something really different in magazines, something to really appeal to the imagination.
Since then, I have diligently traced down and bought every copy of Weird Tales ever published in this country, unfortunately only nineteen in number, but they hold a place of honor amongst my highly variegated library.
Your selection of stories and illustrations is well planned, each issue containing stories ranging from the near commonplace to the really fantastic, while the styles employed by artists give a good coverage, from the fastidious details of Vincent Napoli, to the truly weird illustrations of my favorites, Jon Arfstrom and Lee Brown Coye. Your poetry is particularly appealing. I seem to have memorized "Revenant" by Leah Bodine Drake, and "Hallowe'en in a Suburb" by the one and only H. P. Lovecraft after one reading.
I don't know how many letters you receive for your "Eyrie," but from now on you will be hearing from me regularly. We are rather starved for weird literature in this country.
