Science-Fantasy Correspondent was a science fiction and fantasy "fanzine" edited by Willis Conover, Jr. (1921-1996). The first issue appeared in November-December of 1936, the second in January-February of 1937, and the third, in March-April of 1937. Soon after beginning his zine Conover began writing to H. P Lovecraft, which led to a regular correspondence. Lovecraft did an interview with Conover for his zine and supplied him with out-of-print poems and short stories he had written. He also put him in touch with other writers of weird fiction. After Lovecraft's death in 1937, Conover stopped publishing his own zine. In 1975, he published this one last issue of Science-Fantasy Correspondent, featuring letters from Lovecraft and Kenneth Sterling's memoir, "In Search of Lovecraft: Caverns Measuless to Man." This issue includes some reprinted articles from the first issue of the original series as well as new material. Cover art and interior drawings by Robert T. McCall, Ron Miller, and Edward Samuels. Contents include: The Wine Dark Sea by Robert Aickman; New Settings: Villiers de L'Isle-Adam by Brian W. Aldiss; First Patrol by Joseph Bryan III; To the House Subcommittee on Space Science Applications by Arthur C. Clarke; The Guise of Youth (verse) by Robert E.
