Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. Illustrations by Frank Frazetta, Edd Cartier, Frank Kelly Freas, Hannes Bok, and others (illustrator). 1st Edition. Front board resists opening past 30 degrees -- as-new unread. Number line complete 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10. This book contains a lot of large, mostly full-color reproductions of action-packed illustrations by fine genre artists including Frank Frazetta, Hannes Bok, Edd Cartier, and Frank Kelly Freas (who wrote the introduction) -- art work originally used to illustrate the pulp-magazine and paperback fiction of L. Ron Hubbard (primarily 1934-1950), who certainly wrote a lot of it. This lovely, 194 pp. (with index) hardcover quarto may be worthwhile for these illustrations, alone. On the other hand, the fawning adoration of Hubbard's supposed "legendary mastery" of every profession to which he turned his hand, combined with the studious avoidance of any mention of what Lafayette Ronald Hubbard (1911-1986) was doing during what author Widder cryptically refers to as his "30-year hiatus" from fiction writing post-1950, verges on the creepy. Any nostalgia which author Widder may have felt for the pulp fiction of the 1930s notwithstanding, Hubbard was not a great fiction writer by any measure but volume. Even his early, shorter novels feel like the author is struggling to stretch a limited concept over too many pages. Though surely making a living as a writer requires energy, commitment, and talent of a sort, we cannot recall seeing any of Hubbard's works listed among any generally accepted "best 100" or even "best 200" 20th Century novels of ANY genre in which he labored. (Significantly, actual excerpts of Hubbard's supposedly deathless prose are limited here to an occasional sentence or two.) Hubbard's one undeniable stroke of genius was to observe that earnings could be sheltered from most taxation by establishing a "church," which he did in 1952, launching the controversial "Church of Spiritual Technology," better known as the "Church" of Scientology, to promulgate his development of the quasi-scientific discipline "Dianetics." In fact, publisher Galaxy Press was set up to publish and promote the fiction works of L. Ron Hubbard. The company was separated from Bridge Publications in the early 2000s, and is a business name of Author Services Inc. which is, in turn, completely owned by the Church of Spiritual Technology. (Bridge now focuses solely on Hubbard's Scientology and nonfiction works.) The relationship of talented illustrator Frank Kelly Freas (1922-2005), who contributes the preface here, with the Church of Scientology is unclear. He worked with Bridge Publications and headed up their "Illustrators of the Future" program, but does not appear to have been a full adherent of their dogma. While after his death a memorial was held at the Church of Scientology Celebrity Center in Hollywood, his widow states that Freas was not a Scientologist. Reduced from $20.
