This is an absolute holy grail of horror and dark fantasy publishing: an original copy of Weird Tales from July 1929. Issues from the 1920s era of "The Unique Magazine" are legendary rarities in the collector world. This specific installment is highly coveted for its front-cover illustration by master artist C. C. Senf, depicting a scene from the headline story, "The Corpse-Master," by pulp superstar Seabury Quinn featuring his famous occult detective, Jules de Grandin.
This issue presents a vibrant red cover with bright, well-saturated colours. The front cover shows some damage including a chunk tear at the upper right corner and edge wear throughout. The back cover exhibits creasing, paper loss at corners, and minor surface deterioration. The spine remains intact and legible.
