About Authentic Science Fiction in brief
uthentic Science Fiction was a British science fiction magazine published in the 1950s. It ran for 85 issues under three editors: Gordon Landsborough, H. J. Campbell, and E. C. Tubb. The magazine was published by Hamilton and Co. It competed against three other moderately successful British sf magazines, as well as the American sf magazine market. Hamilton folded the magazine in October 1957, because they needed cash to finance an investment in the UK rights to an American best-selling novel. The last issue of Authentic was the eighth on the schedule on the footer of the cover of the 9–12 February 1957 issue. The cover read: “Science Fiction Fortnightly No. 3”, with the same banner appearing on the 15 January novel, Reconnoitre Krellig II, by Jon J. Deegan, also a pseudonym, this time for Robert G. Sharp. Issue 3 was also the first issue to carry the editors’ names: Landsborough used the pseudonym L. G. Holmes for his editing role on the magazine. The first two issues had carried no issue number; the last issue was the first with the editor’s name on the cover.
