![]() ![]() At the end of its run IF magazine was folded into the Galaxy Science Fiction magazine. IF magazine published serialized versions of many well-known science fiction authors like Robert Heinlein, Larry Niven and Harlan Ellison.Īccording to the Internet Archive, IF magazine won three Hugo Awards for “best professional magazine” in the late 60’s. Not sure what happened to the rest of the run. There even seems to be a “bonus issue”? The very last issue posted at the Internet Archive is listed as Fall 1986 and declares a relaunch of sorts for the magazine, which closed in 1974. Each cover is like a time travel capsule to a different age. The magazine ran from the early 1950’s to the early 1970’s. If vintage pulp or vintage magazines are you thing, then is is something you definitely want to check out. This past week was one of those times as the Internet Archive made the entire original 175-issue run of the science fiction magazine IF available for free download. Sometimes the internet shows up to the party dressed to impress.
