Fragile pulp from 1926. Front wrapper has 1 1/2 inch tear at middle from spine in which continues for the first three pages. 1/4 x 1 inch piece missing from front wrapper. Chipping to edges. Some chipping to spine. 3 1/2 x 2 1/8 inch piece clipped from bottom corner of back wrapper. Musty odor. Toned pages remain supple with light edge wear. Good Condition.
The rare second issue from Hugo Gernsback's ground-breaking science-fiction pulp magazine "Amazing Stories". Includes stories from Jules Verne--"Trip to the Center of the Earth" and "Off On a Comet", Edgar Allen Poe, H.G. Wells, Charles C. Winn, and G. Peyton Wertenbacker.
Not the cleanest copy but perfectly decent filler for an early sci-fi collection.
