DALE DRINNON: Chupacabras, trepanned skulls and uralics

New from the Frontiers of Zoology, I tracked down a long-overdue original source and including a reference to chupacabras from the mid-1940s:

Plus a couple of new articles on the Frontiers of Anthropology:

Something of interest in there for everybody, I should think!
Best Wishes, Dale D.

CALLING ARTISTS WITH A TOUCH OF VINTAGE DERRING DO!



The CFZ, or rather CFZ Press, are on the want. We know that there are a whole slew of talented artists out there, and that quite a few of you read the CFZ Bloggo network. But what we don't know is this...



...is there anyone out there who could work on some book covers for us? We want someone to do pastiches of classic boy's adventure book jackets, especially the ones for authors such as Roger Lanclyn Green in the halcyon days pre-1960.
