Small octavo, 26 issues, pictorial wrappers. Digest magazine. This magazine initial started out with fiction leaning toward the humorous with a note of 'spice,' as evidenced by the titillating covers by Harold McCauley over the first seven issues. In the fall of 1956 the magazine moved to more conventional stories. In the waning days of the magazine the editor tried to move to a more serious image with the age of Sputnik and changed the title to Space Travel, in which the magazine lasted only three more issues. Authors included Robert Bloch, Edmond Hamiltion (some pseudonymous), Steven Marlowe (under pseudonym), Robert Silverberg (some pseudonymous), Randall Garrett, A. Bertram Chandler, Margeret St. Clair, Harlan Ellison and others. Tymm and Ashley, Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Weird Fiction Magazines, pp. 347-350. A nearly fine to fine set. (31550).
