Pulp fanzines
Pulp fanzines are fan-produced publications — sometimes amateurisly put together and mimeographed or photocopied; other times semi-professionally produced — featuring articles and artwork on the pulps and the people who worked in the pulps.
The zines vary widely in quality — “quality” here meaning production quality. They range from photocopied and handfolded zines, to nicely bound with slick covers. Art ranges from amateur (some good, some amateurish) to professional. Articles are almost always of high quality. The prominent pulp writers and researchers will have articles in all the zines, and the zines will mention each other. Don’t be surprised to see authors such as MurrayWill Will Murray, CarrNick Nick Carr, et al, appear in many different zines. And most zines will plug each other.
There are several pulp fanzines being published. But after a brief renaissance in the late 1990s, the number has dwindled.
In addition to these currently published fanzines, there scores of DefunctFanzines defunct fanzines.
