Fantastic Adventures, August 1950

Another sexy cover with a woman with large breasts and very little clothing. There's an odd thing in the artwork, and that's how a dark line is around her body, almost as if she was drawn on something separate and sort of pasted-in here.

The Editor's Notebook

The Devil With You!: “When the magicians descended on the Hotel Flopmoor for their annual convention they decided to raise hell-literally!...”

Two mini-pieces: Wonder Drug and The Mentanical pets. Sometimes these are stories, and sometimes they are factual articles.

Window to the Past: “Was Delmar on the verge of insanity-or was there really another world beyond the window? If so, how could he reach it?”

Two more mini-pieces: Crystalline Power Plant and The Uranian Emissary.

Well I'll Be Hexed!: “Cut down my trees and I'll magic you? the gnome-like man threatened. But Bertram didn't believe in that sort of nonsense...”

Two more mini-pieces: “Shake” Analyzer and Tailored Isotopes.

Where Tall Towers Gleam: “Dick and Kathie trusted the man and went with him to see the City. The trouble was, the city didn't really exist-yet...”

Shouldn't Happen to a Dog: “They say a man may lead a dog's life-but here was a dog who was having a man of a time and didn't mind shouting about it!”

Four more mini-pieces: Warfare by the Sun!, The End is not Yet..., Flying Saucer Scientist and Arctic Bubble.

“Your Rope is Waiting!” : “If a man plans murder, he must first make certain that the fates are in accord. to cross them can mean disaster!”

Two more mini-pieces: Underground Boiler and The Venusian “Collision”
