Table of Contents

It's not clear how much of this publication is speculative fiction. Here is the full table of contents with those stories that are already in ISFDB linked. Also included are what's said as part of the publication's "Acknowledgments" section. Unfortunately, this publication's Acknowledgments did not list the issue or date for most of the stories and so I added a column from the www.tcboyle.net web site with what their research has found.
