A fanzine published with twenty issues by H. C. Koenig in New York City. It was distributed through FAPA and NAPA.
Koenig's secretary did most of the work of publication. Koenig worked as an electrical engineer for Electrical Testing Laboratories, in New York,. He would write "scathing comments on inane professional writing and stupid fannish opinions", and then turn the manuscript over to his secretary and let her do all the rest.
