Marvel Science Stories
Marvel Science Stories was an American pulp magazine edited by Robert O. Erisman, which ran for a total of fifteen issues in two separate runs, the first between August 1938 and April 1941, and the second in the 1950s, when there was a boom in science-fiction magazines.

This picture is an illustration by Alex Schomburg from an interior page of the April–May 1939 issue of Marvel Science Stories, accompanying Harl Vincent's story "Newscast". Schomburg was a Puerto Rican commercial artist and comic-book illustrator whose career in the United States lasted over seventy years, creating many covers for comics in the 1940s, including those featuring Captain America, Namor, the Human Torch, and other superheroes. He later moved on to covers and illustrations for science-fiction magazines, astrology publications, and books, including the juvenile series Winston Science Fiction. Vincent, an engineer by profession, earned a second income by publishing more than seventy science fiction stories in magazines, mostly in the 1930s and early 1940s, but a few in the 1960s, late in his life.Illustration credit: Alex Schomburg; restored by Adam Cuerden
