Hardcover. Condition: Fine. This book ties in with a four-part Anglo-American television series at the time of publication on the story of evolution and of the people who have devoted their lives to discovering the truth about our origins. It is based on interviews with scientists throughout the world. Since Darwin dropped his bombshell of evolutionary theory, people have been fascinated by our journey of development from ape to man. The struggle to answer the many questions that are raised by this theory have led scientists down blind alleys, into ferocious disputes, and even to stage an outright fraud. No one has conclusively traced a clear line of inheritance all the way from our last ancestor in common with chimpanzees through to homo sapiens, and the book brings together the arguments and the ideas, to help readers to understand why we are the way we are today. With illustrations. This is a 1st edition hardback, with its dustjacket in fine condition. (192 pages). This is a heavy book over 1.2kg, so there will be an extra postage charge.

Stapled Wraps. Condition: Very Good. Frank Kelly Freas (cover); Lin Carter, Neil Austin, Cindy (Smith), Jack Gaughan. (illustrator). First Edition. New York: Ronald L. Smith, 1955. First edition. September, 1955 / Issue number 11 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, 60 pp. About Very Good; pages 2&3 (i.e., one leaf) is loose but of course present; several small chips, one crease at back cover, small prior owner's sticker at top left page seven. Otherwise, this would be a Near Fine copy. This September / 1955 issue was published as Ron Smith was really starting to come into his own as the editor, a talent which would manifest itself better the ensuing year. Plenty inside to enjoy; a cover by the now famed Frank Kelly Freas, interior fanzine art by Lin Carter, Neil Austin, Cindy (Smith), and Jack Gaughan - no slouches themselves, and several cartoonists, all ably managed by Art Editor Cindy Smith. The articles and reviews. the meat of the fanzine, are a tour de force: Ron Smith, Lin Carter, Robert Lowndes, Larry Shaw, H.L. Gold, Sam Moskowitz, Robert Bloch, Dave Foley, Randall Garrett, Robert Silverberg, Dave Mason, and Bill Edgerton all contributing - see scan of contents page. Poetry, ads and other bites of interest, as well, of course. For the collector. Please review scans. l-pr1.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Henry Richard van Dongen (cover); Jack Gaughan, Cindy (Smith), Roy Hunt, Marvin Bryer, Dan Adkins (illustrator). First Edition. New York: Ronald L. Smith, 1956. First edition. September, 1956, whole number 50, issue number 16 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, a whopping 72 pp. - thick, for this fanzine. Near Fine. Small chip top right front and another middle left back (see scans), and that's about it. Not much toning to the contents at all; bright, tight and nearly flawless. This September of 1956 issue is certainly one of the best produced in the entire sequence; Ron Smith was really feeling his oats at this time. Featured are "Weird Tales in Retrospect" by August Derleth, and part 3 of Lin Carter's astonishingly intensive research into the of actual books mentioned by H.P. Lovecraft in his stories. Bless him for the energy he spent. A plethora of great illustrations grace this issue, perhaps more than any other issue (of this or any sci-fi genre fanzine of the era, one would guess): H.R. Van Dongen's cover is joined by a bunch of Jack Gaughan illustrations, plus some by each of Dan Adkins, Cindy (Smith), and Marvin Bryer, plus cartoon illustrations by "Miller" and Dave Jenrette - all managed by Art Director Cindy Smith. Other articles include "Randall Garrett's Memo to E.A. Robinson", Larry T. Shaw's "The Baker Murder Case", Lin Carter's poem "The Return of the Fairies", Edmond Hamilton's "Time Traveling in Ohio", a Jonathan Hoag poem reprint, courtesy of George Wetzel, "To the Grand Canyon of the Ohio", William F. Nolan's "Dark Souls in Jeopardy" (a short modernistic three-act play), Garth Bentley's "Complaint of the EM", and illustrated humor by Dave Jenrette, "People to Avoid at a Convention", as a tri-fold foldout. Also, of course, the original meat of the fanzine, the book reviews, here handled mostly by Carter, Robert Silverberg, and Charles Freudenthal. Even some of the seemingly-now-out-of-date book ad from sellers. Pretty much the peak of fanzine-ism. Collector gold, and scarce as hen's teeth. Please review scans. l-pr1.
