A few number of these authors are almost unknown,
and there are no information at all about them.
Their presence here is justified by their apparition on "Weird Tales",
the magazine of the '20s which first published the stories of many
famous writers, such as H.P. Lovecraft and Robert Bloch. The entire collection of "Weird Tales" is composed by 279 issues, and there are only five complete collections known. |
