The Show will again feature a select dealers' room of pulp magazines, pulp related items and reprints, rare and collectable Science Fiction from pre-1975, as well as periodic tours of The Merril Collection, and an afternoon slideshow.

The pulp magazines reigned supreme on the newsstands from the early part of the last century up until their eventual demise in the mid 1950s. There were stories and titles of every kind, from tough detective to westerns; hero to romance, as well as horror, aviation, war, sports, science fiction, adventure and many more. Named after the cheap pulpwood paper on which they were printed, the pulps enjoyed an era of success for decades as the leading form of reading entertainment for the common people. The stories of many prominent authors of the century were first featured in their pages.

Parking is limited in the immediate area, and we suggest trying the lot under the Addiction Research Foundation - the entrance is off of Spadina, and watch for the driveway on the right immediately north of College.
