Galaxy was started by an Italian company (Edizioni Mondiale) which was trying to get a foot-hold into the American marketplace. After failing once with a magazine called Fascination, they approached H. L. Gold (via Vera Cerutti, a previous employee of Gold's) for ideas. Naturally, he suggested a science fiction magazine; they accepted the idea and made him editor. The first issue appeared in October of 1950.
Gold, an agoraphobic who ran Galaxy from his apartment, remained editor until the October 1961 issue (actually he was hospitalized in 1959, but Pohl left him on the masthead until 1961). From there, the magazine changed editorship a number of times until its demise in 1980. Galaxy was revived in 1994, and managed to publish 8 issues before returning to the dead.
