If you're a "vintage" Monster Kid like me, you'll remember all those great Ballantine paperbacks from the yesteryear. Their horror story collections, science-fiction novels, as well as their Tarzan series and the "authorized" Tolkien books kept our imagination fired up, to say the least.
The May, 1978 issue of the fanzine, SCIENCE FICTION COLLECTOR (#6) included an index of all the Ballantine titles from 1959 through 1976. It's a fascinating look back at just how prolific these were, and their influence on genre literature cannot be underestimated.
Straight out of the back pages of captain company!!! I never thought I would ever find an index so exclusive!! Thank you monster magazine world!!
