Synopsis "Strange Tales: June 1932 "

When Strange Tales first appeared, it was clearly something new. Edited by Harry Bates, it combined the supernatural horror and fantasy of Weird Tales with vigorous action plots. Strange Tales rapidly attracted the most imaginative and capable writers of the day, including Robert E. Howard, Clark Ashton Smith, Henry S. Whitehead, Hugh B. Cave, Ray Cummings, and numerous others. Had the Great Depression not intervened and killed it after seven issues, the whole history of fantastic fiction might have been different.Issue #5 issue features work by Hugh B. Cave, Clark Ashton Smith, Paul Ernst, Henry S. Whitehead, Robert E. Howard, and many more.

Clark Ashton Smith (1893-1961) was an American writer, poet, and artist, noted for his contributions to fantasy, horror, and science fiction literature. Born in Long Valley, California, he was self-taught and a close friend of H.P. Lovecraft, with whom he shared correspondence and collaborations in the Cthulhu Mythos.

Among his most notable works are Zothique: The Last Continent and Hyperborea and Other Lost Worlds, both collections of stories that explore imaginary worlds and were published in Spanish. In addition to his literary work, Smith also dedicated himself to sculpture and painting, leaving a multifaceted artistic legacy.
