Amazing Stories, April 1931
April 1931 Amazing Stories This pulp magazine issue features two named science fiction stories: "Across the Void" by Leslie F. Stone, and "The Ambidexter" by David H. Keller. The issue also contains "Beings of the Boundless Blue" by Walter Kateley, described as an imaginative work drawing on contemporary atomic theory and Heaviside layer physics to imagine what lies beyond Earth's known atmospheric layer. A third story appears to begin with "The Cerebral Libr[ary]" but the OCR text cuts off. The cover features Jules Verne's tomb at Amiens, emphasizing the author's immortal influence on science fiction. The issue carries substantial advertising and promotional content for related publications like Radio News, the National Radio Institute, and Coyne Electrical School—reflecting typical pulp magazine business models of the era.
