Description: Fantastic Story Science Fiction Magazine Murray Leinster Vol 8 No 1 Winter 1954 (See photos 2 for table of contents) Fantastic Story Quarterly was a pulp science fiction magazine, published from 1950 to 1955 by Best Books, a subsidiary imprint of Standard Magazines, based in Kokomo, Indiana. The name was changed with the Summer 1951 issue to Fantastic Story Magazine. It was launched to reprint stories from the early years of the science fiction pulp magazines, and was initially intended to carry no new fiction, though in the end every issue contained at least one new story. It was sufficiently successful for Standard to launch Wonder Story Annual as a vehicle for more science fiction reprints, but the success did not last. In 1955 it was merged with Standard's Startling Stories. Original fiction in Fantastic Story included Gordon R. Dickson's first sale, "Trespass", and stories by Walter M. Miller and Richard Matheson. Magazine is in acceptable condition. General shelf and corner wear. Tears on top and bottom of spine. Some light staining on exterior and interior. Some spine and cover creasing. Cover fraying along covers edges. Spine has some issues (see photo #8). Some writing on the front cover. A solid reading copy.
