Harry Harrison's novel The Technicolor Time Machine first appeared in print when it was serialized under the title The Time-Machined Saga in the March, April, and May 1967 issues of Analog Science Fact / Science Fiction magazine with cover art (March) and thirteen interior illustrations by John Schoenherr. It is a time travel story with comedic elements, which satirizes Hollywood. The narrative revolves around the efforts of a mediocre film director to save his job, his livelihood and just incidentally the studio for which he works. To do this, he enlists a mad scientist, the crooked studio owner, a jazz tuba player, a cowboy, two fabulously stupid movie stars, and a real live ocean-crossing Viking. He ends up making history, but in a way he never dreamed of. The story presents a clear use of the restricted action resolution of the Grandfather Paradox. The actions of the characters can not have changed the past because the past is what their actions brought about. For example, one could not go back in time and kill one's grandfather because then the time traveler would not be born. Also includes "Radical Center" (novelette) by Mack Reynolds, "In the Shadow" (novelette) by Poul Anderson, "The Enemy Within" (short story) by Mack Reynolds, and several others.
