Did you run into this at the time?

Even with that roster of authors, that wasn't a friendly time for SF Adventure.
Just 4 issues, but what Issues!
I'm not sure I still have the full set: one of the disadvantages of print magazines. Not as easy to keep track of compared to books. I used to be a regular with Asimov's for years but asmy book accumulation grew, I moved away from short stories to mostly novels. And more recently, to digital.
