'100 per cent yours': the very first issue of a homemade weird-fiction magazine, launched for the fans who feel a real sense of participation in the letters and lore of the genre.

'The Fantasy Fan' (Sept. 1933, ed. Charles D. Hornig) is a landmark early science-fiction and weird-fiction fanzine, its debut number. Historic, lively, essential.
