PulpFest!

The four-day confab opens on August 13 with "early bird shopping in the dealers' room," followed by programming that includes lectures by dealers and collectors of mysteries, science fiction, westerns, Street & Smith comics, and pulp art, plus a Saturday night auction. In special focus this year is horror writer H.P. Lovecraft, born 125 years ago this month, and Weird Tales, the magazine that published much of his work.
