"Curiosities" is a regular department in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction. On this page at the very end of each issue, various old fogeys write about more or less forgotten genre or near-genre titles. The columns are archived on the F&SF website soon after publication; here are links to my own contributions. – David Langford
