Fantastic Worlds updates
Posted a reprint of the now-public-domain Jack Williamson story "The Cosmic Express" (1931) http://fantasticworlds-jordan179.blogspot.com/2011/02/reprint-cosmic-express-by-jack.html and my critical analysis of the story http://fantasticworlds-jordan179.blogspot.com/2011/02/retro-review-jack-williamson-cosmic.html .
This story is of interest as the first science-fictional appearance of the matter transmitter -- indeed, of one which worked rather like the Star Trek teleporter.
