  1. Thanks for reminding us about International Tiger Day. I'll take the day off and celebrate. Though come to think of it I have everyday off already. The WEIRD TALES cover reminds me that I saw the original painting on display at an early Pulpcon in the 1970's. Darrell Richardson, who liked to refer to himself as The Old Tiger, owned it.

  2. I remember Bob Lesser telling me about how he visited Darrell Richardson and bought the WEIRD TALES painting. Darrell went on a trip around the world with the money.
