  • Notes:
    • Volume VI #4. Bleiler notes that this was a typo and should have been Volume V #4. This created an erroneous Volume 6, which only had number 4. The next issue begins Volume VII, perpetuating this error, and establishing this one issue volume.
    • Pages run 433-576.
    • Contents page does not state a precise publication date (month/day) as previous issues do. Month of publication entered here has been arbitrarily applied based on the month of publication of dated issues from 1929-1932. When two quarters are listed on a single publication, the date of the earlier quarter (or season) is entered.
    • Editor not stated. Editor from E. F. Bleiler, Science Fiction: The Gernsback Years, Pages 563-565.
    • Cover art is not credited; no visible signature on the artwork. Bleiler notes that the artwork is probably Sigmond. Other evidence supports this as "A. Sigmond" is credited with the first 7 issues of Amazing Stories from Jan - July of 1933, and this quarterly was issued during the same time frame. Accordingly, this issue has been credited to A. Sigmond based upon the best information available.
