Wonder Stories
"Air Wonder Stories" and "Science Wonder Stories" were merged in 1930 as "Wonder Stories", and the quarterly was renamed "Wonder Stories Quarterly". The magazines were not financially successful, and in 1936 Gernsback sold "Wonder Stories" to Ned Pines at Beacon Publications, where, retitled "Thrilling Wonder Stories", it continued for nearly 20 years. The last issue was dated Winter 1955, and the title was then merged with "Startling Stories", another of Pines' science fiction magazines. "Startling" itself lasted only to the end of 1955 before finally succumbing to the decline of the pulp magazine industry.
