Alpha

(Did you mean a Edward R. Smith fanzine or a Terry Whittier fanzine?)

Alpha was the clubzine of the Antwerp Science Fiction Fan Club and was published by Jan Jansen and Dave Vendelmans. It seems to have been the first fanzine published in Europe and was probably inspired by British fans stationed in Belgium. It was written in Dutch and English.
