Description: I have a very large collection of books spanning many topics. A massive gathering of Philip K Dick titles and editions, as well as fine press, signed limited editions, modern firsts, radical movement and conceptual art items. I encourage you to browse my store and categories for a wide range of unique, quality offerings. Condition: This vintage pulp is in solid GOOD to VERY GOOD condition. There is light toning to page edges, but no brittleness, and pages are flippable. No markings. TINY corner chip to the rear panel. The covers have soft corners/tips, and minor scuffing/fading to the spine, but still overall a nice, bright presentable copy. Preserved in an acid-free archival bag. About: This issues includes an essay by James Blish in the letters section. Fun Fact 1: Stanton Coblentz was first started writing poetry in the early 1920's with his first science-fiction story being published in 1928. The story reprinted in this issue was originally written in 1942. Fun Fact 2: Gregory Benford is notable not just for his writing, but also for his contributions to science and speculation. In his body of work, he is also credited with writing the first story about a computer virus, titled The Scarred Man. Works by:J. T. McIntosh Howard L. Meyers Allen Rivers Bob Shaw Stanton A. Coblentz Ted White John D. BerryGreg BendordDavid Book Amazing began in 1926, and was the first magazine fully dedicated to science-fiction. In doing this, Amazing brought about and helped define a new genre of pulp fiction. The content was a blend of fact and science fiction. It published first stories by such greats as Isaac Asimov, Roger Zelazny, Thomas M. Disch, Ursula K. LeGuin, John W. Campbell Jr. and others. There was a low period early on where the stories that were reprinted had the authors not properly paid. With some periods of hiatus, Amazing has been in publication for over 90 years. It has changed publishers and editors many times, going through various format changes. Never a major seller or holding a wide subscription base, it is is still acknowledged for having a major impact on the sci-fi & pulp genre and publishing industry. I will happily answer any further questions. Making offers: I certainly can appreciate wanting a better deal, and I've made offers myself on my own purchases. To be up front, if and when you make an offer, I will automatically reject crazy low "give it away" offers. Best not to waste our time. With a more reasonable offer, I will review current pricing for other comparable items out there and either accept, counter or decline submitted offer. If in that review, I find my pricing is already LOW and outdated, I may then increase the price to bring more in line with other offerings. I spend a lot of time sourcing the best offerings, preparing the listings with images and clear descriptions, and price fairly in MOST cases. I remain grateful to all who consider my offerings, and I look forward to serving your needs respectfully and with success.
