Detours

(Did you mean a Jonathan White fanzine?)

A fanzine published by Louis Russell Chauvenet starting in 1940 and included in FAPA. It is in the October, 1940 issue that he coined the word "fanzine", writing "We hereby protest against the un-euphonious word 'fanag' . . . and announce our intention to plug 'fanzine' as the best short form of 'fan magazine.'"
