Hi there, i've recently done a trade with a chap, and he is sending me a collection of Albion Wargaming Magazines. The magazine was run (1969-1975) by Don Turnbull of early Games Workshop and UK D&D fame (He was hired by Gygax to distribute D&D through the UK) and two notable subscribers were Ian Livingstone & Steve Jackson. I know Ian did a number of pieces of artwork for the covers and wrote some articles, and that it pre-dated their own Owl & Weasel which they used the subscriber list from to start it.

Knowing how much Owl & Weasel go for (As i sold one a couple of years ago) and not being able to find Albion anywhere, i wondered if you experts here knew anything about it?

Thanks,

Mike...

It was originally a diplomacy zine. Though broader later. Here is an online archive of some early issues:

Albion - Don Turnbull

I might be interested in purchasing some copies as might others who go for early Games Workshop in the UK (and Owl and Weasel / White Dwarf etc..). Quite a cool early zine I think. Mostly UK buyers I expect.

...of course in a few months, you might get some international interest as Brexit and our new Prime Minister ( BoJo) completely f***s our economy, the pound slumps to a few cents in value, people start trading furniture for food and raiding supermarkets and the entire country is reduced to a gigantic fire sale   (sorry, foul - that counts as a political comment I guess, I am happy to remove it, assuming the new Benevolent Conservative Government hasn't taken away my laptop as part of Brexit preparations (…sounds of weeping...))
