Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Near Fine; see scans and description. Chicago: Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science,1982. The November, 1982 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, that being Volume 38, Number 9. The famous and historic Doomsday Clock - shown on each cover or title page since 1947, two years after the publication's inception - here shows the time to be four minutes of midnight as of late 1982. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 64 pp. Near Fine; original addressee label on front cover, very modest toning to white covers and pages. No other flaws. Contents otherwise immaculate. A handsome example; see all scans. Established in 1945 by biophysicist Eugene Rabinowitch and physicist Hyman Goldsmith in response to a correctly-perceived demand for nuclear information at the time by the general public, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is without doubt the most historically significant non-technical publication on the subject of "'global security and public policy issues related to the dangers posed by nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, climate change,[2] and emerging technologies and diseases". Hence, over the years, BAS has become a geopolitical instrument, rather than a nuclear watchdog alone. Feature articles in this vintage 1982 issue: Nuclear Combat; Strategy Games; Pugwash 1982, Warsaw; Soviet Social Problems; Future American Science; Reagan Isolationism; Room in the Ark? Endangered Species; Soviet Succession and Policy; Flexible Response Danger; Sakharov Letter. More. See scan of contents. The always stunningly pedigreed contributors, in addition to editor Bernard Taub Feld, here include Sir Christopher Hammon Paine; Felix Earl Browder; Sumit Ganguly; Michael S. Sherry; Jerry Fincher Hough; Norman Myers; Mark (Marc) Pilisuk; John Dowling; Edward Gerjuoy; Jamie Kalven; David E. Powell; David Dessler; Douglas Mattern; David Keppel. Very, very scarce as the original monthly softcover issue. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box - not a bag. LPR37.

Soft cover. Condizione: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Evanston, IL: Clark Publishing Company, 1956. The June, 1956 issue of Fate Magazine (issue no. 75) in Raymond A. Palmer's now-legendary paranormal-reporting non-fiction enterprise, which began with, in its first issue, Kenneth Arnold's cover account of flying crescents which "skipped like saucers across a pond", an event which, for whatever reason, kicked off the modern era of UFO events. After that, Fate introduced countless events which remain, to this day, fodder for paranormal documentaries and investigation. 12mo, illustrated perfect-bound wraps, 130 pp. A Near Fine copy - very near fine, with just touch edge wear on a small scale, light sunning at rear cover top and bottom (see scans), and of course some modest age-toning to the newsprint paper pages, which remain supple. High Grade, particularly for a periodical which often shows substantial wear from use. See scans. See the scanned image of the contents page for the articles herein, which cover such topics as UFOS Over Japan; Parapsychology; Ghost on British Highways; Teleportation; Precognition; Appolonius of Tyana; Transformation; Time Travel; The Headless Horseman of Belmont; an Unruly Poltergeist; and of course much, much else, including the standard Departments, always engrossing in themselves, all on various other paranormal or inexplicable phenomena. Interior art and photography is largely uncredited. A piece of paranormal history, and an example of a unique branch of Americana, in very highly collectible condition. Please see scans. l50n.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very good +. First and Limited Edition. One of 300 copies, folio size, 293 pp. From the description in the BCC bibliography: "The journal covers three years of travel from Greenville, Illinois, to St. Louis, to San Diego, then up the California cast to San Jose, the gold fields and San Francisco, and back to Greenville via the Isthmus. It is a vivid day-by-day account, supplemented by the author's drawings which are reproduced in the exact size of the originals." Thought to be expensive at the time of publication (priced at $30.00), the account goes on to say that "[t]oday it is among the most sought-after and expensive of the Club's publications" and was selected as one of the Fifty Books of the Year. The book was printed from the original manuscript account "in the possession of the Press", and per the Grabhorn bibliography "does not follow the usual period treatment of the gold rush days." Your cataloguer would like to note that the headers on each page bring a particular delight, such as "Mining no easy job" and "Panned $4.50 in two days" (found on pp. 256-7). A wonderful production, one of the best from the Grabhorn Press. ___DESCRIPTION: Bound in tan cloth boards with natural niger shelfback, title and date blind-stamped onto the spine, the raised bands with decorations in blind, frontispeice one of two folding maps, title page in red and black with a small line-drawing, five ornate initial capitals in red at the beginning of each section, marginal notes and illustrations, seven small and sixteen full-page drawings (including the frontis), small blind-stamp on the rear turn-in ("G-P 91 W:W.") likely a binder's mark; monotype Centaur on Van Gelder paper, folio size (13 3/4" by 9 5/8"), pagination: [i-xiii] [1 blank] [2] [1] 2-272, limited edition of 300 copies (unnumbered). ___CONDITION: Better than very good (and could likely be deemed near fine), with clean boards, straight corners without rubbing, a strong, square text block with solid hinges, the interior is clean and bright, the sole prior owner marking we see a tasteful Ex-Libris on the front pastedown, and collated complete with all folding maps and illustrations present and being near fine to fine; a light scrape to the front board, the spine with some dark spots (we believe bound thus), sunning, a few light marks and the joints just beginning to show wear, some offsetting from the Ex-Libris on the front free endpaper. ___CITATIONS: BCC 100 books, no. 41; Grabhorn Press Bibliography, no. 158; Wright-Howes P522. ___POSTAGE: International customers, please note that additional postage may apply as the standard does not always cover costs; please inquire for details. ___Swan's Fine Books is pleased to be a member of the ABAA, ILAB, and IOBA and we stand behind every book we sell.
