Outsider Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 I think Bix mentioned this on "6:05 Podcast" but didn't know if he found the same honey-hole that I did. But anyway if you are obsessed with the insider newsletter community of fans from as early as the sixties than I have a treat for you! Personally I am interested in 1980 - 1994 but when you look at the time and effort fans would go through to create these letters, it is amazing. I usually just randomly scroll through one and start reading.The bottom of this sample was pretty cool to read! About Bret's debut! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

khawk20 Posted March 2, 2016 Report Share Posted March 2, 2016 I found Crockett right away in that word find. There is always one that you can catch immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Farmer Posted March 3, 2016 Report Share Posted March 3, 2016 There's some great old newsletters out there. Some of the early great ones were Burt Ray's Matmania fro the 60's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steenalized Posted March 16, 2016 Report Share Posted March 16, 2016 I found Crockett right away in that word find. There is always one that you can catch immediately. Jerry Jarrett, three double letters made it stand out to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't sound too bad :-) Also fun comment about Bruiser Brody: "This superstar is unreliable"... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khawk20 Posted April 16, 2016 Report Share Posted April 16, 2016 Well Curt wasn't quite "there" yet and Robinson was a few years past "there", but I agree it was probably fun to watch. Most depressing thing I see on that sheet? "Ivan Putski pinned David Schultz in 8:44". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outsider Posted November 13, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2021 I posted this? Where is the link? Lol. I remember the newsletters on my laptop. I think it was that Google drive collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
