Rare SFWA FORUM #38, 39, 48 Science Fiction Newsletters - eBay (item 310112932039 end time Jan-06-09 19:19:01 PST)

These three issues of SFWA Forum are No. 38, February 1975; No. 39, March 1975; and No. 48, November 1976. Ted Cogswell edited the first two. The third seems to be the first issue taken over by someone identified only as Deb. Offset-printed, folded and bound with staples, they feature an old piece of art and old photo with funny caption, and art by William Rotsler. Interior illos are by S. Gross and Michael Bishop.
