We heard from author William Oberfield almost two months ago with Escape From Pluto. He’s back with an apocalyptic adventure from the Summer 1950 issue of Planet Stories Magazine. Turn with me to page 43, The Enormous Word by William Oberfield…

Next on The Lost Sci-Fi Podcast, Working on the theory that you can skin a sucker in space as well as on Earth, the con team of Harding and Sheckly operated furtively but profitably among natives of the outer planets. That is—until there was a question of turnabout being fair play in a world where natives took their skinning literally! Skin Game by Charles E. Fritch.
