Magazine of Horror #31, February 1970 (volume 6 number 1).
Cover by Virgil Finlay. Contains the short story THE NOSELESS HORROR. Submitted to Magazine of Horror by Glenn Lord. First publication ever. Here’s the introduction to the story:
ROBERT ERVIN HOWARD (1906-1936) has come in to his own in recent years, after many years’ obscurity following the death of WEIRD TALES, as L. Sprague de Camp, Lin Howard, and others
have championed him through editing collections of his tales and completing unfinished stories in the Conan, Solomon Kane, and King Kull cycles.— xsometimes adapting complete mss, REH left behind him, sometimes working out fragments, etc. The present story does not belong in any series, and is not a sword-and-sorcery tale, although necromancy certainly does play a part in it.

Magazine of Horror #18, november 1967 (volume 3 number 6).
Cover by Virgil Finlay. Contains the short story OUT OF THE DEEP (Faring Town). Submitted to Magazine of Horror by Glenn Lord. First publication ever. Here’s the introduction to the story:
In sending us this story, and another, entitled The Noseless Horror, Glenn Lord writes: “Both were apparently written prior to 1930, but, aside from that, I can tell you little about them. “Out of the Deep is a sequel of sorts to Sea Curse (WEIRD TALES, May 1928), for it is in that last named tale that Lie-lip Canool gets his comeuppance . . . As both original mss. were carbon copies, badly smudged where erasing had been done on the originals, I may have mis-translated a word or two. A warning, should you come across something that doesn’t seem correct. It might have been my fault.” … We didn’t notice anything which disturbed us, and are pleased to present this first publication of another Howard story, independent of any of his extended series.
