Free fiction: 7 issues of "Startling Stories" magazine

At Crosseyed Cyclops, in 3 RAR files. Mostly scans in CBR format; in one case, as HTML file too.

Here is what individual RAR files contain (links on individual issues opens their table of contents):
  1. "Startling rar 1": Contains 3 issues: "Startling Stories (British Edition), No 8"; "Startling Stories (New Zealand Edition), No 14"; & a very unusual magazine that is supposed to be a combined edition dated Summer 1955 of Startling Stories + Thrilling Wonder Stories + Fantastic Story Magazine with a single ToC page. There is no mention of publication date of first two on either cover or ToC page.

    Includes fiction by Murray Leinster, Jack Vance, Isaac Asimov, & Gordon R Dickson - among others.
  2. "Startling rar 2": Contains 3 issues, only two of which could be extracted because of WinRAR errors: dated November 1939 & Winter 1955.

    Includes fiction of Poul Anderson, Philip K Dick, Jack Williamson, Jack Binder (I think one of the brothers of the Eando Binder pseudonym), & Stanley G Weinbaum - among others.
  3. "Startling rar 3": Contains 3 issues, only two of which could be extracted because of WinRAR errors: January 1939 (CBR + HTML), April 1953.

    Includes fiction of Stanley G Weinbaum, Eando Binder, & Ross Rocklynne - among others.
