Hugo Gernsback, the man who brought Alex into the magazine illustration world
back in the 1920s, tried to re-boot himself in the science-fiction genre with the
magazine, SCIENCE-FICTION PLUS, in 1952 (the first issue shown here has a March '53 cover
date). Alex did half the covers for this magazine before it expired. On your right is the
cover to the December 1953 issue of AMAZING STORIES. Alex's speciality of other-worldly
machinery came into heavy play in this genre.
