Sunday Morning Bonus Pulp: Fantastic Adventures, July 1952


I used to own a copy of this pulp many years ago, but I don't recall if I ever read it. I remember that cover by Walter Popp, though. My old editor and mentor Sam Merwin Jr. has a story in this issue, as does John Jakes. The other authors are E.K. Jarvis (a house name), William Morrison (who was really Joseph Samachson), and Ralph Sholto, about whom I know absolutely nothing. But it's an eye-catching cover and I always found FANTASTIC ADVENTURES to be fun.

I read the cover story in a reprint. No real memory of it other than somewhat incoherently using alternative realities. Cover is a lot better than the story.
