No form of art ever gave freer reign to the imagination than that found on the covers of the early science-fiction magazines. But it was imagination based firmly on possible realities. Long before there were spaceships, flying saucers, robots and lasers, science-fiction art was depicting them magnificently.
Most of the scientists who were to pioneer our way into the future were men and women who read and shared the dreams of science fiction when they were young. There has never been any other form of magazine art with quite the impact as that found on the old science-fiction magazines. Even today, in the face of the reality that they predicted, these paintings have not lost their richness of imagination and wonder!
