Christmas has always been a popular theme in the entertainment media: film, TV, radio, records, newspapers, books, comics, and magazines -- especially in science fiction pulp magazines. Pulp magazines burst onto the entertainment scene long before electronic media sources. These cheaply produced magazines published on pulp paper carried their devoted readers to adventures in far-away places -- African jungles, polar regions, under sea and through the air and space, the American wild west, other planets and into the past and future. Presented here is a collection of Christmas related covers with science fiction themes from those magazines that are so treasured by today's collectors.

A few of the magazines represented in Part I are: Argosy-All Story, Amazing, Fantasy & Science Fiction, Galaxy, Infinity, Macleans, Passing Show, UK & Australian Publications, Life and Time.
