Tales of Wonder (magazine)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Tales of Wonder was the first professional British science fiction magazine. It was published from 1937-1942 and was edited by Water Gillings. Although it was preceded in 1934-1945 by Scoops, that was more of a boy's newspaper than a magazine.
[edit] The magazine’s demise
Tales of Wonder ended in the Spring 1942 with Issue #16. On the cover of that issue the publishers explained the reason for the magazine's demise:
"Since this issue went to press, we have been obliged - owing to paper restrictions and war conditions generally - to discontinue this magazine while the war lasts. No further issue will appear until peace comes when we hope to resume publication as before."
