3 Starlog Photo Guidebook Magazines, Spaceships, Heroes & Villains, 1977-1980

Description: 3 Starlog Photo Guidebook Magazines, Spaceships, Heroes & Villains, 1977-1980 This auction is for three Starlog Science Photo Guidebook Magazines, all in excellent condition, that feature issues on Spaceships, Science Fiction Heroes, and Science Fiction Villains. Starlog was a monthly print magazine devoted to science fiction film and television and was conceived in 1976 by Norman Jacobs and Kerry O'Quinn. David Houston, who came up with the concept with O'Quinn, became an editor for the magazine as well as a contributor with numerous articles and interviews. Originally published under the imprint "O'Quin Studios, Inc.", it was later accommodated in "Starlog Press" as the founders started to bring more and other genre publications into the mix. Over the years the magazine remained Star Trek heavy with frequently published Star Trek-related articles, features and interviews. Within two years the magazine was upgraded from a quarterly magazine to a monthly magazine. Starlog magazine served as the source publication that spawned a slew of other spin-off serial publications, most of which also containing additional Star Trek material, including, The Best of Starlog, Starlog Poster Magazine, Starlog Spectacular, Starlog Yearbook, Starlog Scrapbook, CineMagic (which specialized in focusing on VFX production staffers and techniques, intended to be a "light" version of American Cinematographer), Science Fiction Video Magazine, SFX Magazine, Starlog Photo Guidebook, and Starlog photo guidebook Special Effects, each of which with a varying degree of success.

Do not pay the automated eBay invoice if you buy more than one item, please allow me to combine your items and quote you an economical combined shipping price. Buy-It-Now customers have told me that they get messages that I don't combine Buy-It-Now items but I do! so please message me if you want to combine Buy-It-Now items.Unfortunately eBay prohibits sellers from direct invoicing or combining shipping for international buyers; in fact, we aren't allowed to be involved in what they charge you. If you buy more than one item as an international buyer, the eBay automated system mindlessly adds all the individual shipping costs up when, in fact, your items could have been combined for a shipping cost saving. If this happens to you, please message me and I have a way of remedying that situation. For domestic buyers, if you buy more than one item during any given week, do not pay the automated eBay invoice that is issued at the auction close, rather please wait for me to issue you a combined shipping invoice.
