An apazine published by Karen Anderson for SAPS during the 50s and 60s. "The Zed" was short for Die Zeitschrift für Vollstandige Unsinn, German for The Journal for Utter Nonsense. Its numbering scheme was somewhat non-standard, and also was out of order...or misdated or something...
In issue #780, which was in the 32nd mailing of SAPS in June 1955, was the first known deliberate use of the term filk song.
