Short Fiction Various: Past Masters Ninety-Five, v1, 4 Sep 2022

[Pulpmeister]

Further short stories from magazines and newspapers, including a group of four by Richard Connell. His most famous story is "The Most Dangerous Game", which is in this issue, but he wrote in a wide variety of genres and the other three show his versatility. I have also included a newspaper interview with Mark Hellinger, celebrated broadway columnist and Hollywood movie producer, which was in all probability written by Hellinger himself whenin Australia in 1944. He wrote, by his own count, some 6,000 short stories at the rate of one a day, for many years.
