Magazines. Digests (12mos). Perfectbound in illustrated wrapper. Overall near fine with some rubbing and light wear at the edges including nicks, tears and crease; a few issues have tape reinforced spine ends. The complete 16-issue run of this short-run American science-fiction anthology, first published for 10 issues starting in 1957 and 1958, before being revived for six more issue in 1969 and 1970. The run includes contributions from Poul Anderson, Issac Assimov, Robert Silverberg, Leigh Brackett, Edmond Hamilton, Arthur C. Clarke, Clifford Simak, Keith Lumer, and Dean Koontz, as well as the first appearances of Theodore Sturgeon's Law ("90% of everything is crap"), Vonda N.
