Read across 1956–1975, Ray Palmer's Search is a general occult-and-paranormal digest on the OTHERWISE side of the field — occultism and psychic phenomena, the Shaver mystery and hollow earth, contactee lore and saucers, gathered into Palmer's characteristic grab-bag of the marvellous. Less a UFO organ than a monthly miscellany of everything strange, from the man who launched the saucer age. General paranormal-occult.
