Alger's Library (Ottenheimer)

Country: US
Total Issues: 25

LeBlanc saw these advertised in Old Sleuth Series nos. 13 and 33 with the Ottenheimer imprint, but he never found an instance of an Alger's Library title with the Ottenheimer imprint. He thus believed that Ottenheimer may have been selling remainders from the Royal Publishing Company's Alger's Library.

Alien (Worlds) [1963]

Country: UK
Total Issues: 15+1=16

Started life as a fanzine called Alien, which ran for 13 issues before being renamed Alien Worlds for its last two issues. The latter name was retained when the magazine was relaunched as a semi-prozine intended as a step towards a professional magazine. Finances and distribution problems stopped its continuation though it had good stories by Harry Harrison, Ken Bulmer and Ramsey Campbell.
