Yrautibo was a 6-page, one-shot, apazine published in December 1956 by Mal Ashworth for OMPA mailing #10 and FAPA mailing 77. The title is 'obituary' backwards.

Archie Mercer in Archive Between Meals (January 1957) thought it 'clearly another case of creeping titlitis. Another Mailing, another title, seems to be the motto.'

A mailing comment from Joy Clarke in Lesser Flea #6 (Spring 1957)

The grave opens and look what springs up! Not only does it come to life but it ups and marries too. There's not much one can say about Yrautibo but one can say a terrific amount about Sheila & Mal. All one needs to say though is, all the very best for a long & happy life together... and I shan’t even mention a word about little printed fanzines or anything. Yrautibo sounds like a port-of-call for Mike Wilson.

Hey, Sheila! One thing. How come Mal scooped old sexfiend Harris (whose name I’m not mentioning this time) on this? The wedding, I mean.
