Grade FR 1.0 Year 1953 Publisher EC

Full-length spine split (taped). Tape on interior cover. Cover oxidation. Staples added (not manufacturing).

This is a low grade item. The story will be complete and readable, but the item itself will have low eye appeal and will display major damage. Allowed defects for this grade include: non-story elements such as coupons, ad pages, or Marvel Value Stamps cut or torn out of the book; spine split of up to 2/3 the length of the book; a missing back cover provided the front cover is still attached; severe water damage, residue, mold, or paper deterioration due to oxidation; vertical book-length crease; detached cover or centerfold; writing or other marks on the cover; major tears; discoloration, staining, or brittleness.

Description

Cover art by Joe Orlando. Al Williamson is profiled on inside front cover (includes a photo of the artist). "King of the Grey Spaces!" script by Ray Bradbury (original) and Al Feldstein (adaptation), pencils by John Severin, inks by Bill Elder; A group of boys watch the launching of a rocket ship, and two of them wish that they were older and could make the trip themselves; They apply for the Interplanetary Patrol and await their decision once they turn 21, but soon Chris gets a surprise that will change his life forever; adaptation of "R Is For Rocket" by Ray Bradbury. "Hot-Rod!", script by Bill Gaines (co-plot) and Al Feldstein (co-plot and script), art by Jack Kamen; Amos and Sally are driving by a lake when a strangely garbed man jumps up on the running board of their car and drops a package in the back seat; Later, Amos looks at the package, postmarked May 15, 2053, and discovers something called a trans-dimensional transporter inside; Thinking it to be some sort of gadget to soup up his hot-rod, Amos installs the device, traveling into the future. "Cleanser" text story. "Brain-Child!", script by Al Feldstein, pencils by Al Williamson, inks by Al Williamson and Roy Krenkel; Colonel Dane is selected to pilot a brand-new spaceship, powered by an electronic brain, which enables this vessel to be a virtual one-man war rocket; While it seems the rocketship could operate itself with no human pilot, the drawback is the ship is void of emotion: it cannot hate, it doesn't know love and it cannot create. "Time For a Change!", script by Al Feldstein, art by Joe Orlando. 36 pgs., full color.
