Art Show fantasy art fanzines from 1970s NoVA

Over the weekend, I found a couple of fanzines from B. Singer, published in late 1977 and early 1978 in Springfield, VA.

The publisher described them as "ART SHOW is a monthly publication dedicated to fantasy art in all its forms. We hope to provide a monthly marketplace for collectors of fantasy art, as well as information of interest to all fantasy art lovers." However, they're mostly catalogues of art that was for sale. Artists included are Stephen Hickman, Jeffrey Jones, Bernie Wrightson, Joel Pollack, Michael Kaluta, Neal Adams, Vaughn Bode, Phil Trumbo, Charles Vess, Michael Kaluta, Boris Vallejo - and yes that Joel Pollack is the founder of Big Planet Comics.

also, I picked up a giveaway comic -

The Littlest Giant: Transistors... Mighty Mites of Electronics!


Free 1950 comic book from General Electric about using transistors in place of vacuum tubes especially in radios.
