| Ummm, these scans are a little pixelated. Did you scan books or are these fiches? I hate to ask someone to rescan their entire collection, but If no one else is gonna bring it up I really wanna read these so I will. |
|
| Scan quality may not be the best, but its acceptable. The stories are great representatives of sci fi at the time. True pulp fiction. |
