FANTASY ADVERTISER #1


By Frank Dobson - 1965

​

Two years before Anthony Roche published Merry Marvel Fanzine in Ireland (and later Heroes Unlimited), and Phil Clarke and Steve Moore published Ka-Pow, in the UK, Frank Dobson produced this Ad zine. Basically, his listings of comics for sale.

​

Issue 1 consists of five pages, including printed pages, a carbon copy, and two pages of lists that look to be handwritten in blue ink.

​

Whether or not this is how all of the first issues looked when distributed (I suspect it was only given to a handful of people), or if it's Frank's own master copy, I have no idea.
 

it's a real bit of UK zine history, and not one I ever thought that I would find.
