Magazine, book?
It was a newsletter that Beahm put out irregularly to keep fans up to date on Stephen King news. I may have my time lines out of whack a bit but I believe George did it to fill the void when Castle Rock ceased publication. Many issues were quite good and informative. I've still got my complete set. I'll dig them out in the next few days and provide more info if people are interested.
Probably not the right thread for this but this is where the discussion started.
In 1995 George Beahm started a newsletter or magazine called Phantasmagoria that lasted (roughly) 15 issues. It was published irregularly but attempted to be about three times per year. I think the subscription price was $10 for three issues. They were generally pretty good and along with your subscription you also got some bonus material, updates, etc.
The issues mostly had news related to King happenings and publications and some original writing by fans as well as book reviews. The format evolved over time....going from about 8 to 12 stapled pages to glossy wrappers to newspaper tabloid style and, finally, a paperback that included issues 12 to 15.
The last issued was limited to 300 copies and there was to be a lettered copy but it never got published. I paid for one as well as a lettered copy of the book STEPHEN KING COLLECTIBLES. I don't think either was ever published. If anyone received a lettered copy of either please let me know.
It was really a pretty good publication. Issue #4 with the Motokops car on the front from THE REGULATORS is the one that listed all the checks from the limited edition. They listed the 500 numbered, 52 lettered and 62 "PC" copies. It filled a void that occurred when Castle Rock ceased publication.
