A lovely post excerpting letters from female readers to Astounding Tales in the early 1930s.

The entire post is well worth reading, but my favorite line comes from the young woman who finished her letter to the editor of A.S. by writing:

Another word to ye Authors: Please do not always have the girls in your stories such sweet little bundles of humanity. Aren't there any tall girls in your imaginations? Please give us tall girls a break once in a while. It makes me feel better. Thanks.
