Weirdbook Magazine Description:

Weirdbook—originally started in the 1960s by W. Paul Ganley—became one of the most celebrated small press magazines devoted to fantasy, horror, and macabre fiction. Contributors included Stephen King, Brian Lumley, H. Warner Munn, Joseph Payne Brennan, and many more...a virtual "Who's Who" of the fantastic.
