A Lovecraft letter reveals an item I don’t think I’ve ever noted elsewhere. Lovecraft states that his Weird Tales rival, Seabury Quinn, held a day-job as the Editor of The Casket. This being the twice-monthly trade journal for undertakers. Bacon’s Publicity Manual states of the title in 1933… “Goes to funeral directors and embalmers; circulation 8,900.”
