Here is an interesting post from the blog Rended Press. Looks like someone has a website with scans from the old fanzine Trollcrusher.

Here is the link.

I think I saw that a few years ago.
From what I remember, for the most part, the PDFs are completely unreadable, and you have to beg the owner of the site for higher resolution copies, and even those are pretty dire.
Still, maybe someone will find something in there if they troll through it for long enough.

yes, available... but have anybody of you tried to read the scans?
i found the trollcrusher site several months ago and downloaded a couple of issues... basically useless file: the resolution is so low that you cannot read any text... i though it wasnt even worth to report that site at all...

I remember e-mailing one of the guys a year or more ago and getting a higher resolution scan on a couple of the issues. I think they were at 150dpi and still pretty dire. Maybe someone here has had better luck. The 75dpi thing is either a very poor attempt to reduce bandwidth, or a naive attempt to avoid any possible copyright infringement complaint. I'm sure if you're persistent enough you'll be able to get the original scans out of the creators. I just didn't want them enough to bug themfor months.

Seems pointless to go through the trouble of scanning them, only to make the resolution unreadable. I did see some stuff in the Table of Contents that seemed possibly interesting.
