List of Star Trek TOS Zines Published While the Show First Aired
This is a list of Star Trek TOS zines published while the show originally aired in the US. For a similar list, see List of Star Trek Zines published 1967-1970 (the Pentathlon list) as well as a December 1970 list compiled by Jacqueline Lichtenberg called A Strekzine Roster.
This article has a focus of zines that are either 100% Trek, or have a Star Trek focus.
Focus
Some general science fiction zines mentioned and discussed Star Trek: TOS.
Two examples:
Antares #2, 1966, cover by Wendy Fletcher-Pini who was 15 at the time; this is possibly one of the first zines with Star Trek on the cover; this zine also includes an "original story" and art by Wendy, though the subject is unclear.
