Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Near Fine; see scans and description. Chicago: Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science,1976. The October, 1976 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, that being Volume 32, Number 8. The famous and historic Doomsday Clock - shown on each cover or title page since 1947, two years after the publication's inception - here shows the time to be nine minutes of midnight as of late 1976. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 48 pp. Near Fine; original addressee label on front cover, tiny strip sot on rear cover, no other flaws. Even the inevitable page paper toning is almost nonexistent. Contents immaculate. A handsome example; see all scans. Established in 1945 by biophysicist Eugene Rabinowitch and physicist Hyman Goldsmith in response to a correctly-perceived demand for nuclear information at the time by the general public, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is without doubt the most historically significant non-technical publication on the subject of "'global security and public policy issues related to the dangers posed by nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, climate change,[2] and emerging technologies and diseases". Hence, over the years, BAS has become a geopolitical instrument, rather than a nuclear watchdog alone. Feature articles in this vintage 1976 issue: Nuclear Sabotage - with five tables of incidents; Peaceful Explosions; Nuclear Energy Illusions & Realities; Nuclear Responsibility - by President Jimmy Carter; Numbers Game; B-1 Bomber - Still Flying or Defunded?; Congressional Buck-Passing; Public Policy for Solar Heating and Cooling; Britain and the Bomb (bbok). See scan of contents. Contributors include Bernard T. Feld; Jimmy Carter; Fred C. Iklé; F.A. Long; Michael Flood; Alan S. Hirschberg; Samuel H. Day, Jr.; Barry R. Schneider; Elizabeth Young. Very, very scarce as the original monthly softcover issue. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box - not a bag. LPR31.

Stapled Wraps. Condition: Near Fine. Alan Hunter, Cindy (Smith), Dan Adkins (illustrator). First Edition. New York: Ronald L. Smith, 1954. First edition. March, 1957 / Issue number 51 under the name Inside and Science Fiction Advertiser (which is the last name for the famed sci-fi / fantasy fanzine, which was also published under the earlier names "Fantasy Advertiser" and "Science Fiction Advertiser", though the primary focus was always Science Fiction). Ron Smith had been editing the publication for about 2 1/2 years by the appearance of this issue. Octavo, stapled illustrated wraps, 38 pp. While the contents are in near fine condition - just age-toned - and firmly bound - the rather battered covers assigns a Good grade only to this copy. See scans. Interestingly, to the best of my research efforts this was the first and only nude-covers (front and back) issue, the honors being done by Alan Hunter. Interior art contributions are by Cindy (Smith) and future serious pro Dan Adkins. Articles and reviews are by the editor and E.E. Smith, L. Sprague de Camp, John W. Campbell, Jr., Lin Carter, and Dave Foley. Ads and other bits of interest, as well, of course. An extraordinarily rare issue. For the collector. Please review scans. l-pr1.

Stapled Wraps. Condition: Very Good. Pat Patterson (cover); Alan Hunter, Lin Carter, Frank Jonbrian, Dan Adkins, Jack Wilson, and Dave Jenrette (illustrator). First Edition. New York: Ronald L. Smith, 1956. First edition. March, 1956, issue number 14 under the name "Inside and Science Fiction Advertiser" (which is the last name for the famed sci-fi / fantasy fanzine, which was also published under the earlier names "Fantasy Advertiser" and "Science Fiction Advertiser", though the primary focus was always Science Fiction.) Ron Smith became the Editor/Publisher with the November, 1954 issue, which was also the first under this name. Octavo, stapled illustrated wraps, 42 pp. Near Fine. Some toning to cover margins, and one small nick at back cover (see scans); otherwise bright, tight and flawless. This March of 1956 issue is certainly one of the best produced in the entire sequence, and features a rarely-published reprint (with Permission from Arkham House) H.P. Lovecraft's July, 1919 philosophical reflection in The National Amateur, "Idealism and Materialism" (A Reflection), in which he assesses those concepts as opposites as light and dark in the universe, and as creations of mankind which will perish when we humans do. Plenty more inside, however. There is fanzine art of the highest order (ably managed by Art Editor Cindy Smith): Pat Patterson's wrap-around cover alien, and outstanding interior art by Alan Hunter, Lin Carter, Frank Jonbrian, Dan Adkins, Jack Wilson, and Dave Jenrette. Besides Lovecraft's piece, there are articles by John Brunner (Rusty Chains), Robert Bloch (Definitions), Randall Garrett (The Tale of Two Pretties) Lin Carter (H.P. Lovecraft: The Books - part one of a series in which Carter lays out in great detail the actual books mentioned by Lovecraft in his stories) and of course the meat of the fanzine, the book reviews, here handled by Carter, Garrett, Robert Silverberg, Charles Freudenthal, Dave Mason, Bill Edgerton, and Margaret Walcutt. And, of course - the creative ads. Amazing stuff, all around, from the history of Sci-Fi.'wow', when one reflects on it. Collector piece. See scans. l-pr1.
