This is the highly collectible November 1948 issue of Fantastic Novels Magazine. This landmark volume showcases one of the most famous, spine-chilling creature covers of the entire pulp era—a gripping, high-contrast giant spider illustration painted by master artist Lawrence Sterne Stevens (signing as "Lawrence") to showcase Murray Leinster’s legendary sci-fi classic, "The Mad Planet".
The front cover retains readable art and colours but shows edge wear and corner damage while the back cover shows creasing and a large corner tear. The spine is worn with significant colour loss and chipping, consistent with a well-read copy.
