Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Evanston, IL: Clark Publishing Company, 1955. The February, 1955 issue of Fate Magazine, Volume 8, Number 2, a scarce issue in Raymond A. Palmer's now-legendary paranormal-reporting non-fiction enterprise, which began with, in its first issue, Kenneth Arnold's cover account of flying crescents which "skipped like saucers across a pond", an event which, for whatever reason, kicked off the modern era of UFO events. After that, Fate introduced countless events which remain, to this day, fodder for paranormal documentaries and investigation. 12mo, illustrated perfect-bound wraps, 130 pp. A very handsome Near Fine example, with just micro touching to spine ends, standard 50's-pulps toning to the interior pages, which remain supple, and precious little else to point to. See scans. High grade condition for a periodical which often shows substantial wear from use. Uncredited cover art shows a comely Gypsy lass dancing at the fire. See the scanned image of the contents page for the articles herein, which cover such topics as a Lourdes Cure, Devil Cat, Reincarnation, Gypsy Tarot, Vikings in Oklahoma, Telepathy, Mystery Tomb of Kalev , and of course much, much else, including the standard Departments, always engrossing in themselves, all on various other paranormal or inexplicable phenomena. Interior art and photography is largely uncredited. A piece of paranormal history, and an example of a unique branch of Americana, in very highly collectible condition. A very rare issue.
