Astounding Stories of Super-Science, May, 1930
Various
Science fiction -- Periodicals; Science fiction, American -- Periodicals
I believe that readers, like myself, who are interested in
scientific fantasies, prefer stories of interplanetary
travels and fourth dimensional stories, and variations of
these themes. Such as various space-ships and vibration
machines for visiting other planets and traveling backward
and forward in time. Stories of lost continents and of
strange races of people living in unknown places on our own
Earth are interesting also.
A magazine of this kind has unlimited possibilities for
stories of the aforementioned types, and I believe that
readers who buy magazines of these subjects expect to find
therein really Astounding Stories. Best wishes for the
success of your magazine!--Ruth Miller, St. Regis Hotel,
Cleveland, Ohio.
"_The Scienceers_"
Dear Editor:
This is to inform you that we have formed a club which we
named "The Scienceers." The object of this club is to bring
together members who are interested in science in general,
also to talk the stories of your magazine over. We have no
means of reaching those who are interested except through
your magazine. We hope you will grant us space to print this
letter in your magazine. We would appreciate it if every
reader of your magazine living in New York City or nearby
towns would drop us a card with his name and address. We
then would be able to send him information of our club. We
hope you will print this letter, as we are all readers of
your magazine.--Louis Wexeler, 1933 Woodbine Street,
Brooklyn, New York.
_We Examine All Science Very Carefully_
Dear Editor:
In the first edition of your periodical, you invite
criticism from its readers. I am extremely pleased to note
that Ray Cummings is among its contributors. His short crisp
sentences and word pictures are most interesting. As to the
type of stories, I would not be particular; but there is one
thing which must be observed: Since this magazine is about
science every story must be examined to discover any false
statements by the author concerning present-day science.
I think that discoveries and inventions to be made in the
future--by the author, of course--cannot be censored.--James
Brodent, New York, N. Y.
_Young Mr. Wright Writes In_
Dear Editor:
I am accepting your offer to write and tell you what kind of
stories I like. So I did.
I prefer stories of the Fourth Dimension.
I hope to find plenty of these fascinating stories in your
coming issues.--Billy Wright, Age 11, Sheppard Place,
Nashville, Tenn.
_Likes His Science Fiction_
Dear Editor:
Allow me to congratulate you on your fine magazine, it being
one of the seven (more or less) magazines in print that are
the best on the market.
