Here’s two unusual Robert E. Howard-related items I picked up off eBay relatively cheaply. I think both of these were originally freebie giveaways to promote fancy illustrated editions of Howard’s work:<\/p>\n

  • (Howard, Robert E.) Gianni, Gary. Robert E. Howard’s Conan of Cimmeria: Drawings & Sketches by Gary Gianni<\/b>. Wandering Star, no date (but 2003, as per the ISFDB). A Fine copy, signed by Gianni. Bought off eBay for $9.95.\n

  • Howard, Robert E. (Gianni, Gary, illustrator). Solomon Kane’s Homecoming<\/b>. Wandering Star, no date (but 1997). A Fine copy, signed by Gianni. Four-page illustrated Howard poem, given away as a promotional item. This was also available in Gianni’s A Solomon Kane Sketchbook<\/b>, but this 8 1\/2″ x 11″ stand-alone item is a larger trim size. Not (yet) in ISFDB, and I only see one other reference<\/a> to it online. Bought off eBay for $15.50.\n
