   	I think we should if only digitally because they were great reading. I   
   was reading   
   Edgar Rice Burroughs when I knew his version of Mars and Venus were   
   fantasy. Same   
   for the original Tom Swift and Jules Verne.  A bit a later Destination   
   Moon and the   
   Astounding Stories.  Finally got The Magazine of Fantasy and Science   
   Fiction then Galaxy and the effusion of SF magazines after the end of   
   the Pulp Era.
