Today in pulp: True Cases of Women in Crime!

Now this is complicated... Image
True Cases of Women in Crime was also known as True Crime... Image
...True Stories of Women in Crime... Image
...and Women in Crime True Fact Detective Cases.

These are all basically the same magazine. Image
However it should NOT be confused with True Crime Exposé... Image
...All True Crime Annual... Image
...All True Fact Crime Cases... Image
...or True Detective Cases from Police Files. These are different magzines with their own unique angle. Image
Similarly True Cases of Women in Crime IS NOT THE SAME as True Crime Cases... Image
...True Crime Detective... Image
...Best True Fact Detective... Image
...or Special Detective True Crime Cases. Again these are DIFFERENT magazines as you can tell from their covers. Image
True Cases of Women in Crime is certainly very different to Real Detective... Image
...Crime Detective... Image
...Startling Detective... Image
...or Line-Up Detective Crime. I mean that's just obvious. Image
Don't even get me started on Uncensored Detective... Image
So there you have it: True Cases of Women in Crime is a unique publication and you should accept no substitute!

More true fact-based police detective real crime another time... Image

The Muppet version of Apocalypse Now...

"I wanted a mission. And for my sins they gave me one."
Image

"Your mission is to proceed up the Nung River by Navy patrol boat, pick up Colonel Kurtz's path at Nu Mung Ba, infiltrate his team by whatever means available... and terminate the Colonel's command."
Image
Image
"Terminate with extreme prejudice."

People who feel they have no voice can have a powerful creative spark, sometimes born of suffering or solitude. Mostly it's hidden, but in the 20th century it began to be admired, celebrated, and even perhaps exploited.

Let's look at the story of 'Outsider Art'... Image
Outsider Art, Art Brut, Visionary Art, Naïve Art: nobody has really settled on a name for artworks made by untrained artists which express a raw, energetic experience of the world. It's art from a different perspective, demanding to be heard. Image
Outsider Art began to be recognised in 1911 by Der Blaue Reiter group of artists in Munich. The group was short-lived but influential: fundamental to Expressionism and admiring of artworks created by people struggling with their mental health. Image

Today in pulp... I look back at '70s Argentinian superspy Namur, a lady who lives her life by the motto "Peligro Supremo!" Image
Namur is something of a mystery. She's an FBI agent who uses her unique martial arts skills to fight crime. However she always wears a mask to protect her identity. Image
Namur's boss at the FBI is the equally mysterious 'Taurus' who hides his identity behind a fan. It's such a secretive world fighting crime... Image

Today in pulp I take a look at back at the humble office copier!

It's a godsend to the busy office worker working on their debut novel... Image
The Victorian office of the future had a mimeograph machine. You turned the handle and it sharpened your pencils so you could hand copy better.

At least I think that's how it worked... Image
The Belle Époque French copied their documents with the Cyclostyle machine. Here a typical administrator explains its function to his enthused colleagues. Image
