Fantasy Book, Vol 1, No. 2

Publication date not stated. Copyright 1947; Tuck lists this issue as published in February 1948. Both a regular edition, printed on pulp paper and a deluxe edition, printed on book paper were produced with different covers. This record is for the regular edition. The cover is signed "Hunt", but the table of contents states "cover designed by Crozetti" who was the artist for the deluxe edition. It appears that the same plates were used for both editions. "Fantasy Focus" is not a department, but a full page ad by Forest J. Ackerman on page 21. "The Book Mark" is a letter column. The review column "The Book Shelf" is billed as "The Fantasy Book Shelf" in the table of contents. The review of "The Skylark of Space" credits "E. E. Smith" as the only author. The van Vogt story was published as "The Ship of Darkness", but all subsequent reprints apparently used "Ship of Darkness".
