Introduction
Marvel Tales July/August 1934, Volume 1 Number 2. Featuring James Allison. This is the first appearance of THE GARDEN OF FEAR.
This publication came with two different covers. (1) a white and green design (2) an orange with green design. The latter contains 4 more pages (a table of contents and editorial scribblings).
Notes
Editor: William L. Crawford
Saddle stapled, wraps. Page numbers do not include covers.
There is a printing error: pp.13-16 from "The Garden of Fear" were printed as pp.33-36 from "Synthetic", so the four pages from former story are missing.
Associate Editor and Art Director, L. A. Eshbach.
Artwork credited by initials or signature on the illustrations.
