New York: Street & Smith Publications, 1941. 1st Edition . Soft cover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. New York: Street & Smith Publications, 1941. First Editions, one each of both the American and (shorter) British editions. Both Octavo, both illustrated wraps. American Edition, 162 numbered pages, better than Very Good, not quite Near Fine. British Edition, 64 pages. Very Good. See scans for a clearer idea. A seminal and oddly scarce issue of the memorable Astounding Science Fiction fiction periodical, which carried the first appearance of many stories. Notable among those in this issue was the first appearance of Isaac Asimov's "Reason" a very early robot's-emerging-awareness tale which has earned its own wiki article, L. Sprague De Camp's "The Stolen Dormouse", which was the feature story here (see scans of cover), A.E. Van Vogt's "Not the First" and Theodore Sturgeon's "Microcosmic God"…

Sheet size: 26 3/4 x 39 7/8 inches (approx). [Pl. 222]. In October 1971, employing the most faithful printing method available, the best materials and the ablest craftsmen of their age, the Amsterdam firm of Theatrum Orbis Terrarum Ltd., in conjunction with the Johnson Reprint Corporation of New York, set out to produce the finest possible limited edition facsimile of the greatest bird book ever printed: the Havell edition of John James Audubon's well-loved "Birds of America". The Curators of the Teyler's Museum in Haarlem, Holland made their copy of the original work available for use as a model. The Museum, founded in 1778, bought their copy through Audubon's son as part of the original subscription in 1839. After long deliberation, the extremely complex but highly accurate process of colour photo-lithography was…
