For the Love of Pulp

It sounds as if attendees at this last weekend’s PulpFest in Columbus, Ohio, had a grand old time listening to panel discussions and swapping and buying collectibles. Also announced during the convention was the winner of this year’s Munsey Award, given “to a deserving person who has given of himself or herself for the betterment of the pulp community, be it through disseminating knowledge about the pulps or through publishing or other efforts to preserve and to foster interest in the pulp magazines we all love and enjoy.” That commendation went to Bill Thom, designer of the Coming Attractions Web site.

The next PulpFest is scheduled to run from July 30 to August 2, 2010, and will again take place in the Ohio capital.
