Cover by Morris Scott Dollens, who has another piece inside. Octavo, illustrated stapled wraps, unpaginated, but 18 pp. + covers. Near Fine copy, with perimeter age toning, otherwise flawless. A high grade, very sharp, undamaged copy. Its content of ads, book lists, book reviews, plus some commentary by "the editor", that being Roy Squires by this time, remains essentially unchanged from its Fantasy Advertiser days.

A classic issue from a fanzine classic from the golden age of sci-fi, replete with ads, sale and auction notifications, publications notices, and more - all focused on science fiction, fantasy and horror, by intent, but mostly on Science Fiction by execution at this time. L-pr1. Morris Scott Dollens, Neil Austin (illustratore).…
