This is Amazing Stories for November 1939, cover by H.W. McCauley. The cover illustrates a human-duplication story “The Four-Sided Triangle,” the 1953 movie version of which I blogged about in the early days of this site. The ISFDB entry for this issue is here. I found this version of the cover at Pulp Covers. You can download and read this issue from the Internet Archive.

  1. Lovingly detailed illustration of machinery reminds me of fetish stories from ASSTR: “He positioned her on a specially built apparatus which was joined at 45 degrees and cleverly balanced on a pivot point so as to allow him to tilt her for different activities. He buckled the heavy leather strap, which was punched at 3″ intervals, around her waist.”

  2. The movie is pretty good, and available on YouTube. It gets into some of the trickier moral issues of cloning, worth a look.
