I agree! Also, I've decided to bury my head in the sand on the issue, so e-books won't take over, it's all just a tempest in a teapot. You heard it here first.
I do feel born out of time sometimes. I think I'd have enjoyed it so much to have been in the mix reading adn writing for all these great magazines. Sad that they are gone.
I miss the great original art on covers, though I know some e-mags and imprints try to hold up the standard, and good for them. I also love photos of authors, and hate that even mass market paperbacks don't always have them.

Oh uh, better stay off Bill's lawn.
Rick, that's what you said about the internet. And cell phones.

"IF" was always my favorite for some reason, but I read most of the others. Love the old covers, too.

It sure looks like Robert Ryan on that cover.

That front and back cover sure takes me back. I agree about the SF Book Club ads. They were very effective pieces of layout and copy.
