Magnum Mania!

So on the Fanlore site for Magnum PI it states there were a few letterzines published during the filming "How to Be a World Class Private Investigator" "I Know What You're Thinking" and "Little Voices" it looks like only a few Issues were actually published. Has anyone ever seen these? the site is linked here. https://fanlore.org/wiki/Magnum,_P.I.

What's a letterzine?

It was a small scale publication for fans. It had episode guides, art, pictures and stories compiled in to a small booklet and released on usually a bi-weekly basis. The forums of the not so digital age lol

Like a fan club newsletter?

Wow. I have certainly never heard of these period fan publications. Cool stuff!! Wonder where these Magnum Maniacs are today?

Hi CR.... do you remember Dave Romas? If so that would a good starting point.....He has some of the letterzines.. if we can't find copies I would bet he would make a copy of each... you can PM him here.... he's number 6 on the membership list.

If you want his email address let me know.

Conch (or anybody involved)...if you follow up on this and actually gain access to any of these publications, and need help with anything (funding for instance...) to make them available, please don't hesitate to let it be known!

Looks like any/all of them would be great collectibles for any of us MPI "nuts". (speaking strictly of/for myself...NOT calling anybody a "nut" )

If they could just be added to the site for download (or just added to view) that would be great as well.
