Science Fiction League Official Emblem — Rocket & Earth Seal, c.1934
Stark black-and-white pen-and-ink rendering uses high-contrast darkness to evoke the cold void of space, giving this membership seal an authoritative, cosmic weight. A riveted, bullet-nosed rocket ship blazes diagonally across a star-flecked circular field, trailing dramatic speed lines past a recognizable globe of Earth. The triple-rule circular border frames the text 'SCIENCE FICTION LEAGUE' in bold serif capitals, lending the insignia the gravitas of an official scientific society badge.

More institutional badge than lurid pulp spectacle — but that sleek riveted rocket blasting past Earth has real Golden Age charm. Think of it as the respectable face of fandom rather than a fever-dream cover.
