BUYING PULP MAGAZINES

	RAY BOWMAN BUYING PULP MAGAZINES and other old magazines Updated February 2019

Collecting Pulp Magazines has been my hobby for over 50 years. My main interest is 'Pulp' magazines, published between 1923 through about 1954. Many people confuse these magazines with comic books because of the similarity of covers and titles. However, there are fundamental differences between the two. Comic books are primarily pictoral stories with captions. Pulp magazines are text, with an occasional illustration.

If you have any pulp magazines to sell, I am always in the market to purchase collections, large and small. I will purchase items after 1954 if they are part of a collection containing some of the older pulps. Check my buying prices below.

We also buy Vintage Paperback Book Collections. Email a listing of your collection for my offer.
Visit our companian Paperback Cover page Slightly Sleazy Vintage Paperbacks to find a daily pulpish paperback cover from my collection
