Science Wonder Stories Quarterly Winter 1930 Vol. 1 No. 2 - Value Priced Replica Edition

Science Wonder Stories Quarterly Winter 1930 Vol. 1 No. 2 - Value Priced Replica Edition

Frank R. Paul
4/5 ( ratings)
A page by page reproduction of the 2nd issue of the legendary pulp magazine - featuring an 80,000 word novel, a 30,000 novella, short stories, all the original illustrations by Frank R. Paul, plus vintage advertisements - and a letter column that includes a letter from a young Forrest Ackerman, titled “Marvelous! Wonderful! Superb!,” detailing his reaction to WSQ.

One of the most controversial issues of a science fiction magazine ever published. Astronomer R. H. Roman’s epic novel “The Moon Conquers” is not only filled with action, romance and breakthrough hypothesis, but, as The Encyclopedia of Science Fiction notes, is also the “the first novel describing the history of the solar system and how a black race established 'human' life on Earth about 30,000 years ago in Africa.” The issue’s long novella, Lilith Lorraine’s “Into the 28th Century,” details a man of the present era’s experiences in far future feminist, socialist utopia.
Veteran sf author and U.S. Naval authority on ordinance, Col. S. P. Meek, weighs in with “The Osmotic Theorem,” a prophetic novelette of ecological disaster that climaxes as the ocean’s areas rise, the “Earth’s surface shrinks” and continents are engulfed. The issue ends with A. C. Webb, M.D.’s story of future tunneling, “Underground Waters.” Each page specially formatted for convenient set the size yourself pinch-zoom. The next best thing to reading an old pulp of your own.
