NotesJanuary 1944; paper; my scan; Missing pages 35-36, 43-44, 53-54, 61-62 (all ads) No art or text stories are affected (the pages had been physically removed from my paper copy). Huge scans. Correction: The book is complete, for some reason books around this time dealt with the paper rationing in this way.
