PGRule6/WeirdTalesNotes

The earliest of these are clearable under Rule 1 now. Some are being worked on PGDP.

From Wikipedia: Weird Tales is the name of an American fantasy fiction and horror pulp magazine first published in March of 1923. The magazine was set-up in Chicago by J.C. Henneberger, an ex-journalist with a taste for the macabre. Edwin Baird was the first editor of Weird Tales, and his assistant was Farnsworth Wright.

Weird Tales had many incarnations, but the only one we are concerned with ran from Mar 1923 to Sep 1954.
