    I love these overviews that you do of the pulps, Gavin. It's so interesting seeing all of these big names come up in these magazines in their early days. I do have copies of the James Blish first Star Trek books based on the earliest episodes on the original TV series. They're not great, but they are interesting from a historical perspective. Great work, as always, Gavin.

      Thanks Pat. I think one day I'll pull a list together of the biggest names to start in the pulps!

    Love this. I picked up four Analog magazines from 1968 at a charity shop the other day for £1.30 each. I was ridiculously happy and thought of your videos as I picked them up 😊

    Who did the illustrations you were flashing up on the screen? They're fabulous--very stylistic.

      They’re from the magazine: found a scan of it to use rather than hold the thing up to the camera.
