Rhodomagnetic Digest

A fanzine originally published between 1949 and 1951, at first by the Elves, Gnomes, and Little Men's Chowder, Science Fiction, and Marching Society, but the publication caused so much dissension within the organization, that it ceased to be the clubzine and went off on its own. (See Bay Area for the discussion in Fancyclopedia 2.) It was revived for three issues in 1962 by Al haLevy.

Rhodomagnetism was a fictional science from Jack Williamson's 1949 novel The Humanoids, and (as "rhodomagnetics") in his 1947 novelette "With Folded Hands... ."

The six issues of Volume 1 were edited by George T. Blumenson, the six of Volume 2 were edited by Donald Baker Moore, and Volume 3 by Don Fabun.
