Retro Sci-Fi Coasters with a Blast of Vintage Space Adventure

The Retro Sci-Fi Pulp Magazine Coasters transport you back to the thrilling atomic age of imagination—when rockets gleamed, aliens threatened Earth, and heroes in metallic suits saved the day. Featuring cover art from classic mid-century pulp magazines like Amazing Stories, Captain Future, Startling Stories, and Thrilling Wonder Stories, this four-piece set captures the dynamic energy and colorful optimism that defined early science fiction.

Each coaster is a vibrant homage to the golden age of pulp publishing, alive with bold typography, radiant hues, and retro illustrations of interplanetary adventure. These images, once splashed across newsstands in the 1930s through 1950s, have been meticulously reproduced to preserve every atomic-age detail—from the chrome helmets and ray guns to the bright, cinematic drama of their original artwork.

Crafted from durable MDF wood with cork backing, the Retro Sci-Fi Pulp Magazine Coasters pair nostalgic beauty with everyday functionality. Each coaster is coated in a glossy, waterproof, and heat-resistant resin—the same finish used on bar tops—ensuring their vibrant colors stay brilliant through countless gatherings. Perfect barware for keeping your tabletops safe from drink rings while adding a pop of retro cool to your space.

Imagine serving cocktails in your home bar while resting a glass atop Captain Future’s valiant pose or Amazing Stories’ unforgettable robot invasion scene. These coasters don’t just protect surfaces—they start conversations, evoke laughter, and stir fond memories of a time when imagination ruled the printed page.

Fitting beautifully within Mid-Century Modern and Industrial Retro décor, they bring vintage personality to a study, den, or game room. Their nostalgic graphics make them perfect for pairing with vintage posters, chrome accents, or wood-paneled interiors. Each set comes wrapped decoratively, ready to gift to sci-fi enthusiasts, retro collectors, or anyone with a soft spot for pulp fiction charm.

The Retro Sci-Fi Pulp Magazine Coasters celebrate not only the stories of the past but also the enduring spirit of curiosity that fueled them. They remind us that adventure isn’t just out there—it can live right on your coffee table.
