March, 1957 / Issue number 51 under the name Inside and Science Fiction Advertiser (which is the last name for the famed sci-fi / fantasy fanzine, which was also published under the earlier names "Fantasy Advertiser" and "Science Fiction Advertiser", though the primary focus was always Science Fiction). Ron Smith had been editing the publication for about 2 1/2 years by the appearance of this issue. Octavo, stapled illustrated wraps, 38 pp. While the contents are in near fine condition - just age-toned - and firmly bound - the rather battered covers assigns a Good grade only to this copy. See scans. Interestingly, to the best of my research efforts this was the first and only nude-covers (front and back) issue, the honors being done by Alan Hunter. Interior art contributions are by Cindy (Smith) and future serious pro Dan Adkins. Articles and reviews are by the editor and E.E. Smith, L. Sprague de Camp, John W. Campbell, Jr., Lin Carter, and Dave Foley. Ads and other bits of interest, as well, of course. An extraordinarily rare issue. For the collector. Please review scans. l-pr1
