ppint. 30th Oct 2023		thank-you, jimess; yes, it serves as such - and may have been written by the editor. cover art, on second & third thoughts, seems to be signed by one m seltzer; - if only it'd been signed ''a. seltzer''.. .



JimEss SUBS 30th Oct 2023		Covers added. I guess the back cover serves as the introduction.



ppint. 23rd May 2018		walt disney/walt disney, inc./(some corporate form of "the mouse") took exception to the unauthorised use fredric brown made of their iconic emblem and val-u-a-ble property in his story in planet stories, requiring at least one rewrite by the author, and at least one title change. yr hmbl srppnt. does not possess a copy of this issue, and consequently cannot confirm the title under which it originally appeared from personal observation: (advice from any bookcatter eyeballing an actual real, live copy of the spring '42 prozine in the wild would be welcome. . .) - and, believe it or not, fredric brown's star mouse rode again. . .
