The Horror from the Mound

Robert E. Howard Foundation

Publication date: Summer 2008 (mailed July 2008)

Introduction

A typescript reproduction of an early draft of The Horror from the Mound. Reproduced from a carbon (blue ink) of the copy that was sent to WEIRD TALES and is virtually identical to what was published. Farnsworth Wright did some very minor editing to the published version.

There is a secret held inside an Indian burial mound, only a few know the secret and they have been sworn to secrecy… until someone became greedy, deciding that there must be treasure hidden in the mound…

Notes

Not available for individual sale. 23 single-sided pages in a folder. 
This typescript was provided to Legacy Circle members of the Robert E. Howard Foundation with Newsletter #2. It is a limited edition and all surplus copies will be destroyed at year’s end.
According to Howard Works this was printed on ivory paper, with each page individually hand-initialed "REHF" in red ink. My copy is on simple yellow xerox paper and has no hand initials.
