This is a vintage July 1953 issue of Fantastic Story Magazine, a highly sought-after Golden Age sci-fi pulp magazine. It is highly collectible because it features early works by science fiction legends like Philip K. Dick ("The Indefatigable Frog") and Richard Matheson ("Lazarus II"). The iconic time-travel themed cover art was illustrated by legendary pulp artist Walter Popp.

The front cover displays edge and corner wear and creasing, while the back cover condition contains toning and edge deterioration. The spine is worn with paper loss at the top.
