Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. Very Good - a strong Very Good. See scans and description. Analog Science Fiction and Fact - December, 1990. New York: Davis Publications, 1990. 12mo, illustrated perfect-bound wraps, 192 pp. Cover by the inimitable Vincent di Fate. Very Good; short, light cover crease, touch wear points around binding, and of course the inevitable age-toning of the paper used in all pulp fiction productions, but here it is modest and inoffensive. Pages are supple. Not far from Near Fine - or would be, if not for that age-toning, unique to the inexpensive types of paper used for the classic American form known as pulp fiction. Herein: contributions by Daniel Hatch (novella, 'Den of Foxes'); Alexis Glynn Latner (novelette, 'Glorystar'); Grey Rollins (novelette, 'Victor Victorious'); W.R. Thompson (novelette, 'Life Among the Immortals'); shorter pieces by Robert Forward; Jerry Oltion; Paul d'Entremont; Brian C. Coad.See scan of contents page. A collectible example of this issue of the 1990 format of a very long-lived series of American science fiction publications - but you know about that. Condition is probably as solid as any you'll be likely to find. Ships in stout protection, of course. L103. Vincent di Fate (Cover) (illustrator).…
