IMAGINATION #8 38 May 13 VOICE OF THE IMAGI-NATION (The Reader spick up their pan & ink & let us know how bad we-- censord!) John V. Baltadonis NHOJ V. SINODATLAB, realy artist suffering "reverses", writes from Comet Publications, 1700 Frankford Av, Philly/Pa: "Grettinx: Few comments on IMAGINATION! -- Nice magazine, except for Ackermanish spelling .... which is a terrible nuisance. However, after I've read a few more issues, I might get used to the blamed stuff. Hope so. (So do I! --Madge) ~~ Mimeographic is definitely a turn for the better..... Material in second issue better than first issue....lots better. And, from what I've seen of the fifth and sixth issues, all I can say is you're going places. (U bet! & having such a streamlined figure I figure on getting to those places quickr!) Just who is the editor of magazine? Ackerman? (Bro Baltadonis has observed evidences of editing? What a triumf!) ~~ Am enclosing $1.00 for a subscription to IMAGINATION!. Hurry those back copies along -- I wanna finish Ackerman's story The Hazy Hord. Just when it became interesting, I found it was serial.......result: woe is I." J Chapman Miske "Dear Madge," types (thank Science!--see autografascimle) J. Chapman Miske of 5000 Train Av, Cleveland/O, "Received the sixth Imagination! as per schedule, and enjoyed it very much - the high spot of the issue being the uproarious interview - or whatever it was - of Robert Bloch's. It was by far the best issue to date. BUT, I gotta argument with you, Madame Myrtle. What's the big idea of ignoring my signature. ("Where ignorance is bliss 'tis folly Tubby wise!" --RC) It's positively a disgrace (what, Ur autograf, Jak?(, because the only reason you lads & lasses in the land of eternal sunshine didn't include it was jealousy, yes sir, nothing less than jealousy. Y ou can't do a thing like that to me when I've been patiently waiting for the opportunity to show up these fellows who have been bragged about their signatures. I ask, no, I want, or no, better yet, I demand that you print this letter and my signature." (Miske-alculating one of those curves in copying Ur autograf & our stylus-stenciling Ack-spert would b Ack-used of scampt work) Larry B Farsaci Poeticontributor of "To a Meteor", "To a Star" &c, of 48 Lewis St, Rochester/NY, put a PS to a personaletter to Ferry[[?]] which, pertaining to "me", he ([[?]]th J") has turned over for inclusion in present ish: "I enjoyed very much bk review The Strange Mss. Found in a Copper Cylinder. ~~ Next book reviewed should be Vic Rousseau's Messiah of the Cylinder. (This apeard Apr.) Although I've read this "MIRACLE" man masterpiece more than once, review by Fred Shroyer will be extremely welcome. It's sure to be unique! ~~ For those who Fred Shroyer will be extremely welcome.
