AMAZING STORIES June 1968 V42N1 Vintage sci-fi pulp Brian Aldiss HARLAN ELLISON!

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. A tiny short tear/fold to the upper edge of the front panel. SMALL. No markings. The covers have soft corners/tips, but still overall a nice, bright presentable copy. Preserved in an acid-free archival bag. About: This issue has several reviews of several books from this period, including a review of Dangerous Visions by Harlan Ellison. Fun Fact 1: Beginning in the early Fifties, Brian Aldiss wrote stories and edited science fiction anthologies for over 50 years. Most known for his Helliconia Trilogy, he was heavily influenced by H. G. Wells, and was a member of the H. G. Wells Society. He was member of other groups as well as Grand Master and winner of multiple awards. Fun Fact 2: David Keller was born 1880 with his first published work appearing approximately 1895. He wrote non-fiction, poetry and science fiction and fantasy during the 1920's into 1950's.

Hickey Craig BrowningRalph RobinLeon StoverHarry Harrison 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 Zealzny, 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.
