Tops In Science Fiction [both issues published]

Two issues published in total, Spring 1953 (standard pulp size) and Fall 1953 (digest size), the first edited by Jack O'Sullivan and the second by Malcolm Reiss: '' featured stories which had first appeared in Planet Stories. Contributors included such Planet Stories regulars as Leigh Brackett and Ray Bradbury. The change from pulp to digest shows the dilemma some of the traditional pulp publishers faced as the pulp chains dissolved and the distributors turned their backs on them'' (Philip Harbottle, Mike Ashley & Malcolm Edwards/Encyclopedia of SF, 3rd Edition). First issue a good copy (spine tears), the second issue NF/Fine (small chip along top spine edge).
