The February 1934 issue of  STRANGE DETECTIVE STORIES carried two stories by REH: "The Tomb's Secret" and "Fangs of Gold."
It appears that the story titles were inadvertently switched.
Howard's agent, Otis Adelbert Kline, kept a list of titles and the magazines that purchased them.
Above "The Teeth of Doom" on Kline's list, someone added "The Tomb's Secret."
Above "The People of the Serpent" on Kline's list, someone added "Fangs of Gold."
