Celebrating Pulp Fiction Magazines in Chicagoland

The Windy City Pulp and Paper Convention just marked its 15th year in Lombard Illinois this past April. The convention centers around collecting pulp magazines and all the tie-ins, from comics to paperbacks to artwork. This documentary shows you what it's all about and how people get sucked into this hobby.

I read all the Tarzan paperbacks when I was twelve and man what an escape from my shitty condition they were. Read in order it’s pretty dang fabulous. What a cool hero he is . Still haven’t seen a movie that does it right. Miles O’Keeffe was the only guy that had the look but couldn’t act and crappy story.

This is a fantastic hobby to have. I'm just a poor guy but I still get things I enjoy. But if I were really rich I would like to build a museum dedicated to the awesome pulp world for the future to enjoy. Hey Bill Gates, why don't ya kick me 20 million or so for this dream ? Yeah, right. 😊
