Soft cover. Etat : Very Good. 1st Edition. Very Good; see scans and description. Chicago: Educational Foundation for Nuclear Science,1975. The February, 1975 issue of The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, that being Volume 31, Number 2. The famous and historic Doomsday Clock - shown on each cover or title page since 1947, two years after the publication's inception - here shows the time to be nine minutes of midnight as of early1975. Quarto, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 48 pp. Very Good. Original subscriber label on front cover (a Hampshire College professor); touch edgewear; the inevitable page paper toning is just modest; binding slightly loose at staples. Contents otherwise immaculate. A handsome example; see all scans. Established in 1945 by biophysicist Eugene Rabinowitch and physicist Hyman Goldsmith in response to a correctly-perceived demand for nuclear information at the time by the general public, The Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists is without doubt the most historically significant non-technical publication on the subject of "'global security and public policy issues related to the dangers posed by nuclear and other weapons of mass destruction, climate change,[2] and emerging technologies and diseases". Hence, over the years, BAS has become a geopolitical instrument, rather than a nuclear watchdog alone. Feature articles in this vintage 1975 issue: Vladivostok Agreement; UNESCO; Velikovsky; Nuclear Reactor Debate; Baptism of Atomic Scientists; much more. See scan of contents. The always stunningly pedigreed contributors, in addition to editor Samuel H. Day, Jr., here include F.A. Long; Stuart A. Rice; Jeffrey J.W. Baker; A. Robert Smith; John Ziman; Arthur Steiner; Robert J. Stern; Earl Callen; George Kolodiy; Dennis Chase; David Dinsmore Comey. Scarce. Ships in a new, sturdy, protective box - not a bag. LPR59.…

Soft cover. Etat : Near Fine. 1st Edition. Evanston, IL: Clark Publishing Company, 1948. The Fall, 1948 issue of Fate Magazine (Volume 1, Number 3) in Raymond A. Palmer's now-legendary paranormal-reporting non-fiction enterprise, which began with, in its first issue, Kenneth Arnold's cover account of flying crescents which "skipped like saucers across a pond", an event which, for whatever reason, kicked off the modern era of UFO events. After that, Fate introduced countless events which remain, to this day, fodder for paranormal documentaries and investigation. This Fall 1948 issue - the third issue ever - bears one of the handful of truly iconic Fate covers, that being "The Red River Witch" (see scan). 12mo, illustrated staple-bound wraps, 128 pp. A Near Fine copy - and this one is as near fine as near fine gets, with just touch micro-edgewear and an almost indiscernible degree of color fade as you look toward the spine. See scans. Standard toning to the interior newsprint-grade pages, but these are supple, clean and and unchipped. Highest Grade, particularly for a periodical which often shows substantial wear from use. This issue features articles on the memorable Red River Witch, Charles Fort, a Kenneth Arnold reprise on phantom lights in Nevada, The Valley of Never-Come-Back, America's White Sunworshippers (A Thor Heyerdahl piece), The Flying Jigsaw Puzzle, America's Most Famous Ghost Story, The Temple Girls of India, The Black Art, Two Girls, One Body, The Devil, ESP events and of course much, much else, including the standard Departments, always engrossing in themselves. Interior art and photography is largely uncredited. A piece of paranormal history, and an example of a unique branch of Americana, in very highly collectible condition. Please see scans. l50n.…
