Forgotten Fantasy
''Forgotten Fantasy: Classics of Science Fiction and Fantasy'' was a short-lived American fantasy and science fiction magazine published by Nectar Press. The headquarters is in Hollywood, California. Douglas Menville served as editor, and Robert Reginald as associate editor. The magazine was digest-sized in format and specialized in reprinting neglected classics of speculative fiction from the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, along with occasional earlier pieces. It appeared in five bimonthly issues from October 1970 through June 1971 which were reprinted by the Borgo Press imprint of Wildside Press in 2007.

During its short life, ''Forgotten Fantasy'' published short stories by F. Marion C ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Fantasy Fiction Magazines
A fantasy fiction magazine, or fantasy magazine, is a magazine which publishes primarily fantasy fiction. Not generally included in the category are magazines for children with stories about such characters as Santa Claus. Also not included are adult magazines about sexual fantasy. Many fantasy magazines, in addition to fiction, have other features such as art, cartoons, reviews, or letters from readers.
