A classic fantasy story from the pages of Argosy, The Torch is one of the pulp's earliest post-apocalyptic stories: following the near-destruction of the world from a comet collision, society now exists in two groups: the aristocrats who live in "The Tower," where the skyscrapers once existed, and the "Folk," who reside in the the abandoned subway tunnels. This edition includes the original illustrations from its later publication in Famous Fantastic Mysteries by Lawrence Sterne Stevens.
