196530707Dallas TX: Tom Reamy. Good. 1965. Number 1. Magazine. nice clean copy externally fine but with small rectangular pieces cut out at the top and bottom corners of pp. 23/24 impacting the two film-related articles see Notes but none of the other content. pen & ink drawings B&W photographs The rare debut issue of this important sci-fi/fantasy-oriented fanzine which represented the editor's return to the publishing field after an earlier publication "CriFanAc" had crashed and burned in the late 1950s after the publication of a half-dozen issues. Some of this background a lot having to do with the early travails and infighting that plagued the Dallas Futurian Society of which editor Reamy was a co-founder is covered in his opening editorial screed which includes numerous references to various personalities who are no doubt long-gone-and-forgotten. "Trumpet" itself lasted for ten issues and was nominated a couple of times for a Hugo Award as Best Fanzine; Reamy himself died in 1977 at the age of 42. This issue is conspicuously fiction-heavy containing the following short stories: "The Altruist" by Charles Portis a Korean War tale which I believe is uncollected; at least it doesn't appear in the 2013 anthology of his work "Escape Velocity"; "The Cosmic Dancers" by James Twiggs; "The Demolished Fan" by Richard Koogle; "The Sisters" by Leonora Carrington a reprint of a 1945 story; and "The Traveling Salesman and the Farmer's Daughter" by Arthur Norman. Also in this issue: "I'm Not Afraid" an article by Marion Zimmer Bradley; a portfolio of Christmas card designs by Hannes Bok; "Existential Da-da Pop Art Funnies" several comic-strip features by Gilbert Shelton; two film-related pieces "Somebody Out There Likes Us!" by Al Jackson a survey of 50s and early 60s science fiction films and a reassessment of the 1954 giant-ant classic THEM! by Reamy both these articles are incomplete due to the corner-clipping of pp.23/24; "Le Sacre du Printemps" a portfolio four pen-and-ink drawings of a crone-like woman in various guises by Reamy; additional retro film reviews by Reamy of ATTACK OF THE GIANT LEECHES 1959 HAND OF DEATH 1962 and THE CURSE OF THE WEREWOLF 1961.
