View source for Mount to the Stars

''Mount to the Stars!'' was a slickly-produced [[fanzine]] [[edited]] by [[Gail Sutton]] and [[Charles Ford]] (Ford on issue #1 only). It lasted two issues published in Spring 1970 and Spring 1971. In format and general appearance it is similar to [[Trumpet]]. 

The first issue featured covers (front and back) by [[Howard Waldrop]]. There are articles by [[A. A. Attanasio]] on ''[[Dune]]'' and Waldrop on [[James Agee]]. Sutton contributes a fascinating column about the publishing statistics of comic books from 1961 to 1967 (compiled from published circulation statistics), with a response by [[Richard Kyle]]. It is 56 pages, offset, with a black and white cover. Its pages are numbered in Roman numerals.

The second issue has full color covers by [[George Barr]] (front) and [[Mike Gilbert]] (back). Fiction includes "Spice Trails" by "[[Joseph Beyrd-Markham]]", a [[pseudonym]] of Attanasio. There are articles on Markham (by [[George Muny]]) and magick (by [[Vic Boruta]]). Illustrations are numerous, including one by [[Tim Kirk]] and many by Gilbert. Its pages are numbered in Hebrew numbers, apparently continuing the numbering of the first issue but not being consistent throughout.
