Revision as of 04:12, 5 June 2024

The British Fantasy Society Bulletin was, as the name implies, the clubzine of the British Fantasy Society. It was edited by D. R. Smith and initially distributed with Futurian War Digest and independently from #22 onwards. There were 27 or 28 issues, the caveat being that no copies of #12 have ever been traced and it may not exist.

Just as there are two unrelated incarnations of the British Fantasy Society – this one in the 1940s and a later one from 1971 – this Bulletin is unrelated to The Bulletin - The British Fantasy Society Newsletter issued by the later incarnation.
