SHRIEK! NO. 4 (PART 1)


SHRIEK!
Vol. 1 No. 4
Winter 1967

Publisher: Acme News Co., Inc.
Editor: "Frank N. Stein"
Picture Research: Robin Bean

Designed and Produced by: The House of Horror, London
Pages: 68


This is the final issue of the short-lived SHRIEK! The last issue reveals a little bit more of itself with an ad that shows the previous three issues of SHRIEK! on sale side-by-side with Health Knowledge's MAGAZINE OF HORROR. Even more revealing is that both "Acme News Co.", which published SHRIEK! and "Health Knowledge, Inc." which published MAGAZINE OF HORROR (and other pulp titles), shared the same editorial address. The intersection of these two magazines can certainly lead to the speculation that perhaps editor Robert Lowndes might have had a hand in the production of SHRIEK! -- maybe even to the extent that Lowndes was the mysterious editor named only as "Frank N. Stein".
