Begun in 1963, Worlds of Tomorrow garnered a reputation for having stories rejected from more established magazines, and was often look down on as second rate. Despite this, many in retrospect note that many of the stories were of good quality. In 1967, Worlds of Tomorrow merged with If for a three year period. After this time, Worlds of Tomorrow began publishing independently again for a short time before it ended in 1971. The History of the Science-fiction Magazine Series by Michael Ashley and the Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Weird Fiction Magazine Index: 1890-2006+ by Stephen T. Miller and William G. Contento was used to gather historical information about this publication.
