The Penguin Collector Issues
From the collection I’ve picked up from a retiring collector, I have a number of copies of ‘The Penguin Collector’ for sale.
‘The Penguin Collector’ is the Penguin Collector Society's twice-yearly journal, published each June and December. Its forerunner, The PCS Newsletter, began in 1974, soon after the Society was inaugurated and ran for forty issues. It became The Penguin Collector in December 1993 and is produced in a format which pays homage to Penguin design.
Articles are contributed by members and other writers on a wide range of Penguin-related matters. They are full of information and interest, the result of sharp-eyed observation, detailed research and careful editorial verification.
Collectors generally contain a number of wide-ranging and in depth essays along with a multitude of shorter pieces. ‘Penguin Points’ enable members to raise all sorts of matters of interest and to seek information from the membership at large about some of the many mysteries of Penguins' publishing history; ‘Penguin Places’ suggest bookshops worth visiting in the unending quest for old Penguins; ‘Penguins in Penguins’ report appearances of Penguin books in literature and art; and anecdotes about ‘The Penguin Collector's Lot’ give reassurance that none of us is alone in this quest.
