Chesley Knight Bonestell Jr, dubbed the "Father of Modern Space art" was a pioneering creator of astronomical art, his paintings inspired the American space program, and remain influential in science fiction art and illustration. Edmund 'EMSH' Emshwiller was an American visual artist notable for his science fiction illustrations and his pioneering experimental films. The Magazine of Fantasy & Science Fiction (usually referred to as F&SF) is a U.S. fantasy and science fiction magazine, first published in 1949 by Mystery House, a subsidiary of Lawrence Spivak's Mercury Press. The first issue was titled The Magazine of Fantasy, but the decision was quickly made to include science fiction as well as fantasy, and the title was changed correspondingly with the second issue. F&SF was quite different in presentation from the existing science fiction magazines of the day, most of which were in pulp format: it had no interior illustrations, no letter column, and text in a single-column format. F&SF quickly became one of the leading magazines in the science fiction and fantasy fields, with a reputation for publishing literary material and including more diverse stories than its competitors. 130 pages. Size: 6" x 8" (140mm x 195mm). (0.4 FANTSFASS).
