May, 1956." M-3046 originally priced at 25 cents. No reading creases to spine BUT there's a noticeable vertical "browsing crease" to front wrap about 3/4-inch from spine, and an inch-and-a-half diagonal crease to bottom corner of rear wrap.

Kuttner (1915-1958) generally wrote American pulp science fiction, fantasy and horror. He worked in close collaboration with his wife, C. L. Moore, whom he met through their association with the Lovecraft Circle, a group of writers and fans who corresponded with H. P. Lovecraft. Most of the married couple's work was published under joint pseudonyms, mainly Lewis Padgett or Lawrence O'Donnell. A friend of Lovecraft's as well as of Clark Ashton Smith, Kuttner contributed several stories to the Cthulhu Mythos genre invented by those authors, including "The Secret of Kralitz" (Weird Tales, October 1936), "The Eater of Souls" (Weird Tales, January 1937), "The Salem Horror" (Weird Tales, May 1937), "The Invaders" (Strange Stories, February 1939) and "The Hunt" (Strange Stories, June 1939) He died of a heart attack in Los Angeles in 1958.
