Fanzines

March 12th, 2008 by BeRKA

Today I added a new link category, “Traveller Fanzines” in the sidebar. Are there any Traveller Fanzines on the web that I have missed? Are there any other links that You think that I should add? :?:

    That is all I have found online.

    On a similar note, there is workings underway to make available the HIWG AAB Proceedings, the HIWG Newsletter, as well as the Tiffany Star zines.

    If it works out they will be located over at TravellerFreeport.com

    Hopefully Leighton Piper will see this or hear of it and get him inspired to finish the remaining 10 or 13 issues of SignalGK. I really wish there were some way to expedite the process but I doubt Leighton would be willing to send his issues to me for scanning - no matter how temporary that time may be. Considering that he hasn’t put out a new issue since Oct of 2006, I am not going to hold my breath for the rest anytime soon. Oh well.

    There was/is another I forgot about.

    The Meshan Saga

    There are 8 issues of it. It was geared as a developers zine for those in the HIWG that were working on developing the Meshan Sector. It was mainly for TNE but tried to accommodate MT and CT.

    It can be found on the HIWG CD which is available for download at Travellerfreeport.com

    It has some interesting stuff in it that I have seen so far. I haven’t had the chance to read thru them all yet.

    I am now in the progress of scanning AABP. I am done with Tiffany Star.
    I have however detected I have a few holes in my collection. As all the fanzines are at work now so I can scan them I am not sure which ones which are missing. I expect to have the zines up in about a week time. 2 weeks at tops.

    I will also put out PDFs of my Fanzine Kfan Uzangou, but I can’t find the originals to issue 1. I would really be happy if someone could mail me a copy of that issue if it still exists out there. 300DPI black and white. Contact me through my forum or website http://forum.travellerfreeport.com or http://www.travellerfreeport.com

    I know Starwolf hasn’t mentioned it, but his fanzine collection is up and running. He was short a few Tiffany Star’s but I had them and they since have been added to his site.

    He has a really nice collection that is worth checking out.

    Unfortunately, the Meshan Saga was removed by request. It even had to be removed from the HIWG CD IIRC.

    On the up side, all the Fanzines he has available are now included on the HIWG CD.

    There are still some holes in his collection, and if anyone has copies of what he is missing, I know he would most grateful for the help in filling the gaps.

    He is missing issues,

    Starburst: 1-10, 34, 37-40

    AABP: 1-11, 37, 43-44

    Kfan Uzagou: 1
