Magazines and Newspapers were publications produced commercially or for commercial sale to a wide market.
Newsletters and Fanzines
were generally produced by organisations and supporters’ groups for circulation within their membership.
There may have been some overlaps, but we have tried as far as possible to put each publication in its correct category.
