Modern Robert E. Howard fandom is on the rise and I decided to add my own contribution. Each issue is 80 pages, 8 1/2 x 11 (side-stapled) fanzine SWORD & FANTASY. This is for #1-15, and as a set this is $50 off the full retail price of $225. Not includes are issues #16 and #17 (listed separately in my Ebay Store).
