The MPorcius Fiction Log takes another look at the Weird Tales Winners, the subject of his longer blog post back in 2017. Both posts being inspired by the fact that in the World Fantasy Convention 1983 Souvenir Book there was…

an article in the program [book] by SF historian Sam Moskowitz entitled “The Most Popular Stories in Weird Tales: 1924 to 1940, with Statistics and Analytical Commentary.

Moskowitz had acquired the set of tally-cards used by editor Farnsworth Wright to decide the most liked writers in Weird Tales.

Where to find this article? Sadly only the Pocket Programme and Progress Report booklets are online for the World Fantasy Convention 1983, not the book itself. But the Moskowitz article was reprinted more recently in Jim van Hise’s Sword & Fantasy No. 13 (2017), which may prove an alternative route for those who want to obtain a copy.
