I also have (had? I may have sold them) most of the old Vertex magazines. Great magazine, I'm sorry it didn't make it. Towards the end the quality went down, in fact that last magazine I got was not a magazine at all but was typeset on newsprint. It tended to be a bit more progressive and experimental than most magazines at the time and did some adult oriented work. Oh, well. chuq -- From the ledge of the seventh cornice: Chuq Von Rospach {amd70,fortune,hplabs,ihnp4}!nsc!chuqui (408) 733-2600 x242 You can't always get what you want, but if you try sometime you just might find, you'll get what you need! -- Rolling Stones

[Think of it as evolution in action] Does anyone remember Vertex? I have what I think is a complete set of the mag, but I'm not sure. I have all of volume one, all of two but number six, and, I think, volume three stoped at number four. Can anyone tell me if there was a V2#6 and if there were more than four in V3? Vertex started in April of 1973, and was a very plush large format mag. Several of my persional "best liked" short stories and novelettes come from Vertex. Several Niven, Van Vogt, etc. Thanks, -- "dignified and dependable" Mark Pease Tektronix, Inc. PO box 500 39-170 Beaverton, Oregon 97077 (503) 627-3559 ...tektronix!tekig1!markp
