Premiering at PulpFest 2o26!
AGE OF ACES will be back at PulpFest again this year where we will be debuting our two new titles!
We’ll be premiering our two new books for 2026 at PulpFest as we usually do. And this year we have two more series volumes you can pick up for your aviation library!
First up we have a second volume of the further exploits of that madcap crew of a Handley Page bomber:

The Casket Crew Comes Back
by ARCH WHITEHOUSE
The Casket Crew’s unspoken code was a simple one: “One for all, and all for one!” Their loyalty was forged in a blazing, withering hell of bullets and steel and dynamite. It was fused and toughened in the cold wind of Death that breathed whenever they flew. On the ground their viewpoints were many-sided and conflicting; but when old No.7 hoiked her trucks from the uneven fi eld of the Independent Air Force at Cassel, the six men that rode along were merged into a perfect, frictionless unit of destruction known as The Casket Crew!
Arch Whitehouse ruled the pages of the air war pulps in the 1930’s. He drew upon his own experiences as a tail-gunner in the Royal Air Force to bring his colorful characters to life. The Casket Crew fl ew their Handley Page bomber through adventures in several magazines—Aces, Wings, War Birds and then back to Wings to fight WWII. This volume collects five more of their WWI adventures from the pages of Aces and Wings: Tracer Target (10/32), and Ambassadors from Hell (12/32); and three from Wings Magazine: The Casket Crew Comes Back (4/34), The Casket Crew Fights Back (7/34), and Highway to Hell (9/34). That’s 362 pages of hellbent for leather excitement for only $17!
That’s a great read!
Paired with this is the fourth and final volume of Donald E. Keyhoe’s Mad Marines—The Devildog Squadron—in five more Weird World War stories!

Devildog Squadron: Coils of the Cobra
by DONALD E. KEYHOE
“Cyclone Bill” Garrity and his Mad Marines match their planes—and their wills—against battalions of Boche baddies in the skies of Weird World War I, and the missions have never been madder: A German squadron that can seemingly be in two places at once; A revenge plot four years in the making; A vengeance-seeking villain in a gold mask that marks his victims with the sign of a cobra; Kamikaze falcons and the mystery of encoded hula-girl tatoos; An invisible wall around Paris that reaches into the sky; And 100-foot-long shells that can destroy entire aerodromes in one deadly shot. As the enemies’ coils draw tighter the action gets hotter for the 28th Pursuit Squadron in five thrilling adventures from the pen of Donald Keyoe, later author of The Flying Saucers are Real.
This fourth volume includes the final five adventures of those Mad Marines form Sky Birds Magazine: Satan’s Courier (3/35), Falcons of Fury (4/35), Coils of the Cobra (6/35), The Devil’s Dynamo (7/35), and Shells of Satan (9/35)!
Five great stories! It’s a shame there aren’t any more after this.
In addition to these new books, we’ll have all of our other titles on hand as well as our previous convention exclusive—Arch Whitehouse’s Coffin Kirk, and 2022’s two book set of Steve Fisher’s Sheridan Doome! So if you’re planning on coming to Pittsburgh for PulpFest this year, stop by our table and say hi and pick up our latest releases!
We hope we see you there!

to our faithful readers on this fine Christmas morning, we give you a curious tale from the Teufelhund Jagdstaffel. It’s those flying leathernecks, Donald E. Keyhoe’s The Devildog Squadron! At the same time Keyhoe was writing the 







a story from the pen of Donald E. Keyhoe—in fact, I believe it is his first aviation story he had in the pulps! More soap opera than dashing wartime aviation thriller, Keyhoe tells the story of Harvey Masters, Dizzy Jim Boyd, and the girl unwittingly caught between them! The strangest part is that nobody ever suspected the truth about Dizzy Jim Boyd, though there was a lot of guessing when he first showed up at Western Airways Field, until the day when Harvey Masters came through and stopped for gas. . .
had a story in a majority of the issue of Flying Aces from his first in January 1930 until he returned to the Navy in 1942. Starting in August 1931, they were stories featuring the weird World War I stories of Philip Strange. But in November 1936, he began alternating these with sometime equally weird present day tales of espionage Ace Richard Knight—code name Agent Q. After an accident in the Great War, Knight developed the uncanny ability to see in the dark. Aided by his skirt-chasing partner Larry Doyle, Knights adventures ranged from your basic between the wars espionage to lost valley civilizations and dinosaurs. Secret agents from a dozen countries have all rushed into the Mediterranean for something—but what? Knight and Doyle set out to find out just what it could be. The carrier from which they’ve just taken off mysteriously and soundlessly explodes leaving nothing behind! Just what is out there?
