Planet Stories From The 1930s - 50s

I see these 1930s science fiction story books at flea markets and antique shopes from time to time, but I can never bring myself to buy one.  Golden Age Comic Book Stories posted about 30 of these Planet Stories covers.  I really must give it a shot.  If they are half as entertaining as the covers, they would be worth the price I usually see.
