This is the first issue of Analog that I remember reading. At the age of 10, I found the cover story clever & thrilling. It's still a cool cover. I now think Verge Foray's "Lost Calling" might be the best in the issue.

I'm reading this one now. Aside from the cover story, there's fine work by Tom Purdom, W. Macfarlane, J. T. McIntosh, and Carroll M. Capps.

This one is not signed, but the fiction is surprisingly good. "Frontier of the Dark," by Bertram Chandler is wild, and a real departure for Campbell. Astounding, Sept. '52.

One thing you should know. I've been reduced from 10- to 1-finger typing. Concision, yes. That said, I'm reading 1952 Astoundings. A form of time travel in both directions.
