Between 1933 and 1935, Matania illustrated several science fiction stories for the British magazine, The Passing Show. In  1933 Matania applied his very realistic style to illustrations for 'Pirates of Venus' and 'Lost on Venus', first serialized in six parts in Argosy in 1932.  Matania's version was also syndicated - how extensively I cant say.

Then, in 1934 and 1935 Matania illustrated  "When Worlds Collide" and "After Worlds Collide" by Edwin Balmer and Philip Wylie, which originally appeared in  The Blue Book Magazine between 1932 and 1934, but these were combined into one when serialized in The Passing Show.
