I'm proud to say that my collection is a large and fairly complete
one. I have every science fiction magazine (printing all-stf) that has
appeared. I have hundreds of fantasy stories that have appeared in
Munsey publications since 1905. I have more than a hundred Weird Tales
lacking only the first two or three volumes. I have hundreds of fantasy
excerpts from magazines that occasionally print fantasies, such as
Blue Book, Popular, Complete, Short Stories, American Boy, etc., etc.
I also have quite a few tales of a fantastic nature that have appeared
in English magazines. All in all, I think I'm justified when I say that
I have one of the best collections of fantasy fiction in the country,
even if it hasn't every science fiction story that ever appeared.
