I have about given up waiting for a voter packet for the Retro Hugos this year (which means it will be released in about half an hour), but I'd kind of like to cast a vote if I can, so I was wondering if anyone could help find available sources for the short fiction.

The list is here:

BEST NOVELLA
Anthem by Ayn Rand (Cassell)
A Matter of Form by H. L. Gold (Astounding Science-Fiction, December 1938)
Sleepers of Mars by John Beynon [John Wyndham] (Tales of Wonder, March 1938)
The Time Trap by Henry Kuttner (Marvel Science Stories, November 1938)
Who Goes There? by Don A Stuart [John W. Campbell] (Astounding Science-Fiction, August 1938)

BEST NOVELETTE
Dead Knowledge by Don A. Stuart [John W. Campbell] (Astounding Stories, January 1938)
Hollywood on the Moon by Henry Kuttner (Thrilling Wonder Stories, April 1938)
Pigeons From Hell by Robert E. Howard (Weird Tales, May 1938)
Rule 18 by Clifford D. Simak (Astounding Science-Fiction, July 1938)
Werewoman by C. L. Moore (Leaves #2, Winter 1938)

BEST SHORT STORY
The Faithful by Lester del Rey (Astounding Science-Fiction, April 1938)
Helen OLoy by Lester del Rey (Astounding Science-Fiction, December 1938)
Hollerbochens Dilemma by Ray Bradbury (Imagination!, January 1938)
How We Went to Mars by Arthur C. Clarke (Amateur Science Stories, March 1938)
Hyperpilosity by L. Sprague de Camp (Astounding Science-Fiction, April 1938)

I can't say I'm terrifically interested in reading the Ayn Rand, although it appears to be out of copyright in the US, for some reason, and I'm not really sure which of the others I might have read over the years.

So far, all I have found in my archives is that the novella "Who Goes There?" is collected in Sense of Wonder: A Century of Science Fiction ed. by Leigh Grossman.

OK, so there is now a Retro Hugo packet, and probably was when I wrote that.

Never mind.

Well, they aren't all in the voter package, so I'm still on the lookout for:

BEST NOVELLA
A Matter of Form by H. L. Gold
Sleepers of Mars by John Beynon [John Wyndham]
Who Goes There? by Don A Stuart [John W. Campbell] - Collected in Sense of Wonder ed. Leigh Grossman, which I already own

BEST NOVELETTE
Dead Knowledge by Don A. Stuart [John W. Campbell]
Rule 18 by Clifford D. Simak

BEST SHORT STORY
How We Went to Mars by Arthur C. Clarke - in The Collected Stories of Arthur C Clarke, which seems to be easily available. (Actually, it looks like it's near enough the start of the book to be readable in the Look Inside or the free sample.)
