Fanzines and Fan Magazines

History

According to Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

A fanzine (blend of fan and magazine or -zine) is a non-professional and non-official publication produced by enthusiasts of a particular cultural phenomenon (such as a literary or musical genre) for the pleasure of others who share their interest. The term fanzine is sometimes confused with "fan magazine", but the latter term most often refers to commercially produced publications for (rather than by) fans. 

On this page, there are some fanzines and fan magazines that contain Mandrake stories or which have articles (or covers) related to Mandrake the Magician.
