Some evidence of how the Weiss Brothers' use of the Fantasy image as lifted from THE MAGAZINE OF FANTASY AND SCIENCE FICTION's first logotype, when one of the magazine's two editors, Anthony Boucher, was based in San Francisco (Boucher also conducted an opera program on KPFK/Pacifica Radio in those years and many thereafter) was received by the publishers, Fantasy House/Mercury Press (then best known for publishing AMERICAN MERCURY and ELLERY QUEEN'S MYSTERY MAGAZINE, and whose publisher, Lawrence Spivak, was just about to take on long-term duty as host of MEET THE PRESS on NBC) is hinted at in the correspondence published in THE EUREKA YEARS: BOUCHER AND MCCOMAS'S THE MAGAZINE OF FANTASY AND SCIENCE FICTION 1949-1954, edited by Annette Peltz McComas and published by Bantam Books in 1982.Todd Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01815516018079824802noreply@blogger.com
