Air Wonder Stories, April 1930 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781717309617)

Rather than focusing his new publication on aerial adventure stories, editor Hugo Gernsback said in the April 1929 issue that his magazine would contain "flying stories of the future, strictly along scientific-mechanical-technical lines, full of adventure, exploration and achievement." This issue contains cover story "The Flying Buzz-Saw," by Harold McCay, "Evans of the Earth-Guard," by Edmond Hamilton, "Through the Meteors," by Lowell Howard Morrow, "The Heat Ray," by O.L. Beckwith, "The Meteoric Magnet," by Moses Schere, and "The Flying Legion," by George Allan England. Of interest to aviation history buffs, the non-fiction article "How High Can Man Fly?" and regular columns Aviation News and Aviation Forum. Air Wonder Stories was published from July 1929 to May 1930, when it was merged with Science Wonder Stories to become Wonder Stories Quarterly. In 1935 it was sold to Beacon Publications and retitled Thrilling Wonder Stories, which ceased publication in 1955 with the decline in the pulp magazine industry.
