Today we’ve got two lost sci-fi short stories for you. On the surface they would appear to be dissimilar. But they do have a few things in common. Both stories were written by men, if you can believe the names used when the stories were published in 1954. The use of pseudonyms was very common in science fiction magazines during the 40’s, 50’s and 60’s. We know nothing about these two men and neither produced many stories that appear in the publications of the time, or since for that matter.Support
