Astounding Stories of Super-Science January 1930 by Ray Cummings, Murray Leinster, M.L. Staley, C.V. Tench, Anthony Pelcher, Victor Rousseau, S.P. Meek, Harry Bates
2.0
The stories were not very interesting. According to Wikipedia the editor Harry Bates aimed for straightforward action-adventure stories, with scientific elements only present to provide minimal plausibility.
I estimate that I will be about 140 years old when I catch up by reading 2 issues of Astounding/Analog per month. Since the more modern issues will be a lot more interesting I will skip many of the older issues. I will now jump ahead to 1938 when John W. Campbell became editor. Wikipedia says: "Campbell's editorial policy was targeted at the more mature readers of science fiction".
