Not every pulp fan can afford original magazines, and not every story has been reprinted in a standard anthology. That’s where the small presses on this page come in.
A word on terminology: pulp reprints present stories in standard anthology format, grouped by author, magazine, or theme — sometimes with original or new illustrations. Pulp replicas go further, publishing a particular pulp magazine in facsimile form (but better paper), complete with original cover and interior artwork, and sometimes even the original advertising. The two formats serve different purposes, and you’ll find both here.
ThePulp.Net is not affiliated with any of the publishers listed below, nor are they paying to be included, nor do we vouch for the quality of service you might receive. Publishers appear in alphabetical order.
