About this Item

A good copy of the first issue of Tops in Science Fiction from the Spring of 1953. This was one of only two issues published. The upper third and lower one inch of the spine paper is lost. Two chips to bottom edge of the cover. One at the spine and one at the corner. There is a closed tear through "Brackett." Pages are toned but clean and free of marks or stains. Binding is solid. A lovely copy of an early pulp.
