Golden Fleece Historical Adventure

Golden Fleece Historical Adventure was an American adventure pulp magazine which published nine issues between 1938 and 1939. Golden Fleece specialised in publishing historical fiction - one of the few pulp magazines to do so. It published two stories by Robert E. Howard, the creator of Conan the Barbarian: "Black Vulmea's Vengeance" and "Gates of Empire". Other writers included Talbot Mundy, H. Bedford-Jones, Ralph Milne Farley, Anthony M. Rud and Murray Leinster. Contributing artists included Jay Jackson, Harold Delay, Harold McCauley, and Margaret Brundage, who painted two covers for Golden Fleece. Science fiction historian Mike Ashley describes it as a "rousing and unpretentious" magazine, and suggests that it may have failed because of distribution problems; the publisher, Sun Publications, was a small Chicago-based firm.
