Tales from Space City

[julesjones]

Anyone got a copy of the first volume of Tales from Space City they'd be willing to give/sell/lend to aralias? Alas, Judith and I no longer have the paper master, let alone any copies. I do have the files. In Lotus Ami Pro format. Formatted for a Laserjet 4 printer... They're going to need importing into a slightly more modern file format and the layout re-done from scratch, which I'd rather not do if there's a paper copy out there in need of a good home.

ETA: a copy offered within 20 minutes! However, I would note for anyone thinking of purging their zines that there are other neofans out there who are Very Sad that they missed the zine era, and even if nobody wanted to take the zines off your hands five years ago, they can find good homes now. This goes double for Tales, because apparently even the first two volumes with a moderate print run never turn up on eBay. And those are the ones that won't be going on AO3 even if I do get a circular tuit, because I don't have permission to put much of the contents online.

I have a damaged copy (I spilled coffee on a pile of zines, and iirc TfSC1 was one of the worst affected). I'd be willing to pass it on for the price of postage.

that just shows me - i was dithering about how livejournal was SURE not to have any copies it didn't want (i suppose this is dreamwidth) and then, within an hour, an offer!

thank you - i would love to take this off your hands. and would be most happy to pay postage.

thanks, julia, too <3 this fandom is very good to me.

PM me your address & I'll get it in the post :) Is there anything else you are particularly looking for? I have a box of zines languishing in the loft because we have rather fewer bookcases here than in our former house.

\o/ i do actually have a number of very specific requests. if you have any of these i would be delighted to take them off your hands (one of them is yours... i don't know whether that means it's more likely that you will have it or not!) and i will also give you money, if you will accept it - and certainly give you postage :)
