The Traveller Times is a newsletter that Mark Gelinas published for many years beginning in 1987 and continuing on to 1991.

Description (Fanzine)

Initially, it was called the Tidewater Traveller TIMES because he was living in the Tidewater area of Virginia.

  • Later, as readership increased the name was changed to the Terra Traveller TIMES.
  • The TIMES had a 43 issue run. A 44th issue was created on-line as an experimental e-zine.
  • Unfortunately, that is not longer available.

Meta-history & Background (Fanzine)

NOTE: The TIMES was originally created on a Tandy 2000 using a dot matrix printer.

  • Later issues would use a Macintosh and an inkjet printer.
  • In either case the originals are old and somewhat faded.
  • If I were to produce the TIMES again in a print edition, I would be able to use Framemaker (tm) and a laser printer.
