Don’t you wish you had a time machine?<\/p>\n

Can’t you just imagine standing in the glory of a sidewalk newsstand overflowing with lavishly colored pulp magazines?<\/p>\n

The first sentence above is also the opening sentence on the next-best-thing to a time machine: ThePulp.Net’s Pulp Photos page<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"New<\/div>\n

Today we added the photo above. It’s of a woman making a purchase at a New York newsstand in May 1936. There are copies of Short Stories<\/em> (May 10, 1936), Spicy Detective<\/em> (June 1936), Detective Fiction Weekly<\/em>, Argosy<\/em>, Wild West Weekly<\/em>, Popular Western<\/em> and Western Story Magazine<\/em> for sale.<\/p>\n

As of today’s addition, we have 54 different photos of pulp magazines on newsstands. There are 61 total photos, including closeups that offer a better look at the pulps.<\/p>\n

Let me point out what I just said: “pulp magazines on newsstands.”<\/p>\n

That’s right. Even if we get a terrific photo of a vintage newsstand, it has to have pulp magazines visible to make it into the gallery. Otherwise, as far as we’re concerned, it’s just a nice old photo.<\/p>\n

Take the photo from the 1940s below.<\/p>\n

\"A<\/div>\n

A note on the back of the photo says: “This is only part of the News Stand (sic). Thought Bud would be interested. They have papers from every part of the world.”<\/p>\n

This one had real promise. At first glance, it looked like a whole storefront loaded with newspapers and magazines \u2014 including pulps, no doubt.<\/p>\n

\"CloseupBut, as you can see at right, a closer look revealed that whoever took the photo didn’t hold the camera steady. The image is blurred so that you can’t tell exactly what magazines are on display.<\/p>\n

Sadly, that photo won’t be included in the Pulp Photos gallery<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You win some, you lose some.<\/p>\n

As you hopefully know, ThePulp.Net has put together the best online gallery of pulp newsstands. We’ll continue adding to it as often as we can.<\/p>\n

If you have a color photo of pulps on a vintage newsstands, we’d love to share it with pulp fans. Of course, if you have a black and white photo you’d like to share, please let us know<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
