Short Fiction Various: Past Masters 133, v1, 4 August 2023

[Pulpmeister]

This anthology of out of copyright stories in the Life+70 jurisdictions includes as usual well-known authors and entirely unknown authors, and some "different" stories. They are from old magazines and newspapers, and out-of-print collections or anthologies. One of them, The Last Crash, was billed as a " book length novel", which in pulp magazines meant about 25,000 words (or, in the rest of the publishing world, a novelette).
