All  right,   last  item   for the  evening.

Amazing Stories V16 #3. March 1942

Another  thick one,  with   a  lovely   color BC.

The mouses  have  taken  a little nibble off the lower  RH edge FC,  and there's  a  bit of general wear,  but the worst of it is  that 
a coupon  has  been  clipped out of page  5.   Rosicrucians ad on one side,  this issue's  editorial on the other,  takes  out about a 2 x 3 piece.

Kind of sad because this issue has  stories by  Edgar Rice Burroughs, Manly Wade Wellman,  Edmond Hamilton  and Raymond Z Gallun.

Well,   at least all the stories are intact.

Asking $10

Motion Picture V42 #3, October 1931
