THE FANZINE SCOPE PRESENTING IN THIS INSTALLMENT [[illustration text]] FANS IS NUTS SOAP TK AAHHH! SARDONYX !! U.S. MAIL FANZINES BY THE TON?? PLUS SELECTED SHORT SUBJECTS...

My two attempts to get a copy have proved wholly abortive. OK. I'm a sucker, a stubborn one for that matter. In addition to the Finlay original I offered last time, I'll offer a pair of framed Pauls.
