Amazing

Total Issues: 1

Apparently an "ashcan" issue published for trademark purposes. Ziff-Davis issued a large number of these in the late 40's but the purpose of this one is not certain. It is known that Howard Browne planned to convert Amazing Stories to a large-size, semi-slick format in 1950 but was thwarted by paper rationing when the Korean War started. This issue may have been printed to protect a modified version of Amazing's title and logo.

Amazing Stories (Canada)

Canadian reprint edition of Amazing Stories. Tuck says this ran for 24 issues from September 1933 to August 1935, with dates and numbering identical to the corresponding US issues, but issues have been seen as early as 1931. He says that they were identical to the US magazine except for the overprint "Printed in Canada on Canadian paper".
