Hello! I'm the guy whose "Emerald of Mars", which appeared in the ERB
fanzine "Odwar" in 1964, was re-published here a year or two ago.

I haven't had very much ERB-related stuff to mention, but in going
through my things I found an old fanzine from, ah yes, 1963.
I then searched for another copy on ABEBooks, which has more than
10,000 booksellers from around the world, and some 40 million books,
but NO LUCK, no such title in stock on their database. Nor any others
in this entire series.

It is the following: BURROUGHS READER #5, Idaho Falls, ID, Winter
1963 edition. Published by Dale R. Broadhurst. 18 pgs. Appears to be
mimeographed or 'dittoed', as we used to call 'em. COVER: "The
Mastermind of Mars", an original drawing by Dale Broadhurst. CONTENTS
INCLUDE: Trading Post, Editorial, "Day of the Ape Men", "The
Adventures of Lord Blackstoke" by John & Tom McGeehan, the article:
"Burroughs in Fan Publications" including "his characters that have
been overlooked by previous biographers." and more. Illustrated
throughout.

So, the mag is in good to very good condition throughout, nothing is
torn or missing. I wonder what this item might be worth to a serious
collector? It has a bit of sentimental value to me, but if someone
really wants it, please let me know! Oh, by the way, I have books &
short stories I've written on my website, some strange things indeed,
--so please do stop by!

Best, ----Ed
