Like the Insidious Dr. Fu Manchu shown here, the 10th Annual Windy City Pulp and Paper Convention is just around the corner, or at least close enough to start making plans to attend! Keep April 23-25 open on your convention calendar and y’all come out to the Chicago suburb of Lombard. Check it all out at www.windycitypulpandpaper.com.

As the smell of decaying pulp magazine paper is like an aphrodisiac to a large number of folks who peruse this blog, you won’t want to miss the very best Pulp and Paperback Convention there is. You’ll find a huge room filled with all the “good old stuff” we like: pulps, paperbacks, hardbacks, magazines, comics, original art, movie, radio  & tv memorabilia, science fiction/fantasy/mystery/adventure stuff – well, you’re getting the idea. Plus, you’ll find auctions, an art show, a film room and a con suite. And specifically to this blog, there’s always a good supply of select Robert E. Howard items as well.

Additionally, a passle of Howard Heads show up to swap lies and Talk ’bout Bob, and the REH Foundation hosts a luncheon for it’s Legacy Circle members in attendance. World renowned pulp expert and REHupa Blogger Morgan “Doc Pod” Holmes always attends, and usually Prince Valiant (and REH!) artist Gary Gianni makes an appearance.

So, for a roomful of great stuff along with REH Fellowship, I hope you can make it. No excuses now, I don’t want to hear you crabbin’ about how you meant to be there!… C’mon out, support the dealers and add to your Howard collection. I guarantee a great time!
