Octavo, stapled illustrated wraps, 46 pp. Just Good; covers are separated from the textblock; otherwise, this would be a Near Fine copy with just some angular age toning at the cover. This February / 1956 issue was in the heyday of contributors and production/editing values for the series. Plenty inside to enjoy; there is fanzine art of the highest order (ably managed by Art Editor Cindy Smith): Cindy's wrap-raround cover art honors the predicament of an author; also, outstanding interior fanzine art herein by Cindy, Lin Carter, Neil Austin, Roy Hunt, Dan Adkins, and Dave Jenrette. A rare piece of short fiction, "Manunkind" by David R. Bunch leads off; following ar articles by Ron Smith ("Think"), Randall Garrett and Lin Carter ("Masters of the Metropolis"), Kenneth Ford ("Boundaries in the Brain-Pan") and Ken Beale ("Spaceships and Celluloid"), as well as Bob Tucker's semi-regular Science Fiction News Letter. The heart of the publication, the book reviews, are here handled by Carter, Garrett, Ford, Bill Edgerton, Dave Mason, and Robert "Bob" Silverberg: And there are, of course - the creative ads.

Ron Smith became the Editor/Publisher with the November, 1954 issue, which was also the first under this name. Octavo, stapled illustrated wraps, 42 pp. Very Good plus to about near fine; two chips at bottom front cover, peripheral toning (see scans). s This November / 1955 issue was published as Ron Smith was continuing to improve the fanzine, which had been erratic in quality in prior years; 1956, yet to come, would be perhaps the best year. Though credited artwork is still sparse, there's plenty inside to enjoy; a rare short story - "Infiltration" by Carl Larsen - and articles, editorials, essays and reviews by editor Smith, William L. Freeman, Randall Garrett, Robert Silverberg, Lin Carter, Dave Mason, James Blish, George W. Price, Carl Larsen, Joe Schaumburger, R.S. Montague, S. Ostlund, Bob Tucker - all these pieces being, and having always been to this point, the meat of the fanzine under its several names. See scan of contents page. A rarity, for the collector. l-pr1.

Stapled Wraps. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. New York: Ronald L. Smith, 1955. First edition. September, 1955 / Issue number 11 under the name Inside and Science Fiction Advertiser (which is the last name for the famed sci-fi / fantasy fanzine, which was also published under the earlier names "Fantasy Advertiser" and "Science Fiction Advertiser", though the primary focus was always Science Fiction). Ron Smith became the Editor/Publisher with the November, 1954 issue, which was also the first under this name. Octavo, stapled illustrated wraps, 60 pp. About Very Good; pages 2&3 (i.e., one leaf) is loose but of course present; several small chips, one crease at back cover, small prior owner's sticker at top left page seven. Otherwise, this would be a Near Fine copy. This September / 1955 issue was published as Ron Smith was really starting to come into his own as the editor, a talent which would manifest itself better the ensuing year. Plenty inside to enjoy; a cover by the now famed Frank Kelly Freas, interior fanzine art by Lin Carter, Neil Austin, Cindy (Smith), and Jack Gaughan - no slouches themselves, and several cartoonists, all ably managed by Art Editor Cindy Smith. The articles and reviews. the meat of the fanzine, are a tour de force: Ron Smith, Lin Carter, Robert Lowndes, Larry Shaw, H.L. Gold, Sam Moskowitz, Robert Bloch, Dave Foley, Randall Garrett, Robert Silverberg, Dave Mason, and Bill Edgerton all contributing - see scan of contents page.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. New York: Ronald L. Smith, 1956. First edition. September, 1956, whole number 50, issue number 16 under the name "Inside and Science Fiction Advertiser" (which is the last name for the famed sci-fi / fantasy fanzine, which was also published under the earlier names "Fantasy Advertiser" and "Science Fiction Advertiser", though the primary focus was always Science Fiction.) Ron Smith became the Editor/Publisher with the November, 1954 issue, which was also the first under this name. Octavo, stapled illustrated wraps, a whopping 72 pp. - thick, for this fanzine. Near Fine. Small chip top right front and another middle left back (see scans), and that's about it. Not much toning to the contents at all; bright, tight and nearly flawless. This September of 1956 issue is certainly one of the best produced in the entire sequence; Ron Smith was really feeling his oats at this time. Featured are "Weird Tales in Retrospect" by August Derleth, and part 3 of Lin Carter's astonishingly intensive research into the of actual books mentioned by H.P. Lovecraft in his stories. Bless him for the energy he spent. A plethora of great illustrations grace this issue, perhaps more than any other issue (of this or any sci-fi genre fanzine of the era, one would guess): H.R. Van Dongen's cover is joined by a bunch of Jack Gaughan illustrations, plus some by each of Dan Adkins, Cindy (Smith), and Marvin Bryer, plus cartoon illustrations by "Miller" and Dave Jenrette - all managed by Art Director Cindy Smith. Other articles include "Randall Garrett's Memo to E.A. Robinson", Larry T. Shaw's "The Baker Murder Case", Lin Carter's poem "The Return of the Fairies", Edmond Hamilton's "Time Traveling in Ohio", a Jonathan Hoag poem reprint, courtesy of George Wetzel, "To the Grand Canyon of the Ohio", William F. Nolan's "Dark Souls in Jeopardy" (a short modernistic three-act play), Garth Bentley's "Complaint of the EM", and illustrated humor by Dave Jenrette, "People to Avoid at a Convention", as a tri-fold foldout. Also, of course, the original meat of the fanzine, the book reviews, here handled mostly by Carter, Robert Silverberg, and Charles Freudenthal. Even some of the seemingly-now-out-of-date book ad from sellers. Pretty much the peak of fanzine-ism. Collector gold, and scarce as hen's teeth. Please review scans. l-pr1. Henry Richard van Dongen (cover); Jack Gaughan, Cindy (Smith), Roy Hunt, Marvin Bryer, Dan Adkins (illustratore).…

Stapled Wraps. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. New York: Ronald L. Smith, 1956. First edition. March, 1956, issue number 14 under the name "Inside and Science Fiction Advertiser" (which is the last name for the famed sci-fi / fantasy fanzine, which was also published under the earlier names "Fantasy Advertiser" and "Science Fiction Advertiser", though the primary focus was always Science Fiction.) Ron Smith became the Editor/Publisher with the November, 1954 issue, which was also the first under this name. Octavo, stapled illustrated wraps, 42 pp. Near Fine. Some toning to cover margins, and one small nick at back cover (see scans); otherwise bright, tight and flawless. This March of 1956 issue is certainly one of the best produced in the entire sequence, and features a rarely-published reprint (with Permission from Arkham House) H.P. Lovecraft's July, 1919 philosophical reflection in The National Amateur, "Idealism and Materialism" (A Reflection), in which he assesses those concepts as opposites as light and dark in the universe, and as creations of mankind which will perish when we humans do. Plenty more inside, however. There is fanzine art of the highest order (ably managed by Art Editor Cindy Smith): Pat Patterson's wrap-around cover alien, and outstanding interior art by Alan Hunter, Lin Carter, Frank Jonbrian, Dan Adkins, Jack Wilson, and Dave Jenrette. Besides Lovecraft's piece, there are articles by John Brunner (Rusty Chains), Robert Bloch (Definitions), Randall Garrett (The Tale of Two Pretties) Lin Carter (H.P. Lovecraft: The Books - part one of a series in which Carter lays out in great detail the actual books mentioned by Lovecraft in his stories) and of course the meat of the fanzine, the book reviews, here handled by Carter, Garrett, Robert Silverberg, Charles Freudenthal, Dave Mason, Bill Edgerton, and Margaret Walcutt. And, of course - the creative ads. Amazing stuff, all around, from the history of Sci-Fi.'wow', when one reflects on it. Collector piece. See scans. l-pr1.
