Introduction

Weird Tales from April 1934 contains the first publication of Howard's 'Shadows in the Moonlight', a Conan story. Girasol Collectables did a great replica of the original with scanned text and interior art right from the original pulp pages. No editing. No reset text. I haven't found that so I made my own from a downloaded PDF-file.

Notes

Editor: Farnsworth Wright
"Shadows in the Moonlight" is illustrated by Hugh Rankin.
Volume 23, Number 4.
Page numbers run from 401 to 528 excluding covers.
Interior art credit for "The Eyrie" per Jaffery & Cook The Collector's Index to Weird Tales.

Illustrations :
Andrew Brosnatch,
