Abstract
In periodical and magazine collecting, it is vital that some order be established in what is actually owned. If not, chaos reigns. Salive was a good collector in that he purchased Bradford Day’s Complete Checklist of Science Fiction Magazines and like the completist he seemed to be, checked off those issues of Astounding Stories he owned. Occasionally he added notes like ‘coverless’ to entries. He did, however, lapse. His earliest issue of Astounding was March 1930. This and his other early issues owned have not been checked off. Loosely tipped in is a note that indicates a bid he may have settled on for a particular copy.
