Windy City Pulp and Paper Convention Auction
Glenn Lord estate auction 

From Doug Ellis:

Here's one of the unique items that will be in the Glenn Lord estate auction being held on Friday night, April 6, 2018, at the upcoming Windy City Pulp and Paper Convention (April 6-8, 2018, at the Westin Lombard Yorktown Center).

Back in 1968, Donald M. Grant published his third collection of stories by Robert E. Howard, following "A Gent From Bear Creek" and "The Pride of Bear Creek." Entitled "Red Shadows," it printed Howard's stories of Solomon Kane. For this project, Grant enlisted the talents of artist Jeff Jones, who painted the art for the cover as well as three interior plates (a fourth plate reprinted the cover art).

In the auction is this item, which I think is an uncut proof sheet of the dust jacket and the interior plates. It would look great framed and on the wall!
