Fantastic Adventures January 1945

The woman on the cover is drawn in a very interesting style.

Editor's Notebook: editorials, letters, etc.

The Devils Pigs: “The Himmlers and Hitlers of tomorrow were guinea pigs in a fantastic laboratory of rehabilitation that led to...something else!”

Invasion of the Raindrops: “Out of a rainstorm came a weird, yet lovely, vision and a voice that was music itself. But there was no music more fraught with danger...”

A Japanese Fantasy: fact. Apparently the Japanese military considered trying to drain the area of sea between New Guinea and Australia. They could then turn that into farm land and other things.

The Shackled Statue: “Windy had never seen anything so lovely as this statue/ nor yet a sculptor so mad as its creator!”

A Nutty Fantasy: factual article about nuts.

Freddie Funk's Forest Forge: “Freddie didn't expect to find a smithy here in the forest; even so, he might have paid little attention-until this odd smith entered the war!”

The Observer; “No mere human scored 100% in the army's aptitude test! Yet one man had!” (Isn't that a self-contradictory title?)

A Year From Tonight: “Drake entered an old castle and found a lovely girl prisoned in the past.”

Factual articles, a series of five.

The Cannonball Road: “Washington's army needed the Cannonball Road for victory; but certainly it could not be vital to modern war in far-off continental Europe?”

Factual article on farming fish.

Taggart's Terrible Turban: “What mystery and terror could there be in a mere turban that could send its wearers into strange antics?”

More factual articles about scientists and trees.

The Miracle of Dr. Beaujean: “This great python had eyes within eyes and the inner eyes were human!”

Factual article on polar secrets and silicon.
